A basic, one-day plein air studio art class open to all levels. Participants will develop the fundamental skills that all artists need, when painting from life, including composition, drawing, design, value and color skills. Each class begins with a short demonstration and a different lesson about painting each session. Students work from life outside, sketches, and photographs; receive individual instruction within the group to address specific needs and levels of experience; and bring work to the studio for critique.
Students may work in oil or pastels. A materials list and reading list are provided, and materials are available for a small fee. First-time painters welcome.
