This class will focus on choosing subject matter, simplifying the complex elements found in the landscape and the sky, strong composition for more success, value, light patterns, design, color, paint application and atmospheric perspective.  We will also cover new ways to apply paint to better show your personal reaction to the landscape.              

      Demonstrations, group critiques, and lots of personal attention are included.  This workshop will be held outdoors depending on weather, or indoors  if necessary. 

      Students may be beginner to advanced in plein air painting, but participants should have a solid knowledge of the medium they will use.  Oil or water based oils are recommended, and pastels are welcome.  Acrylics should be used only if the student knows well how to deal with the rapid drying process of this medium and have experience with it..
