I teach workshops in palette knife painting and find its a wonderful introduction for beginners who are intimidated by a more structured approach that requires more intensive drawing skills and control. It also works beautifully for more experienced artists who want to free themselves from tight representational control and loosen their approach.
This little yellow boat is a piece has been used several times in workshops. Its simplistic shape makes it approachable, yet subtle shading provides enough of a challenge in colour mixing and shape manipulation to have a good learning curve.

This is really a good choice for beginners and I like the idea that it is simple but also kind of challenging.
Its good to have a simple shape that doesn't intimidate as there are all levels of ability in a class. There should also be a degree of complexity that can be interpreted several ways to challenge those more experience so they don't get bored.
