Plein Air on Location
Oil
August 26-31
Red Rock Ranch, Westcliffe

All Levels – must have painting experience

The focus of this plein air workshop will be the basic fundamentals to creating a successful painting. We will work on the “ how and why” light effects the subject and how to achieve that illusion through a better understanding of composition, values, color and their proper relationships.  By close observations and comparisons, simplifying the masses and working on color mixtures the student will leave with a stronger knowledge of painting the landscape.  To capture the feeling of a time or place, the atmosphere and mood – that’s the magic of outdoor painting.

A week of small size studies, do not expect to leave with finished paintings, will be the general format; demos, a slide presentation and critiques will also be conducted throughout the week.    I will work with each student as to his/her own level, but good-drawing skills are key.   This oil painting workshop will be geared towards intermediate to advanced artists.
