Air painting classes
To successfully paint out-of-doors is an exhilarating experience,
yet it requires knowledge, preparation, and training to read nature’s
ever-changing moods and interpret them for others to enjoy.
Classes are taught on location, and instruction is offered in both oil
painting and soft pastel.
Here are a few of the topics that we will explore:
- The sketch, the study, and the painting
- Elements of composition in plein aire painting
- Keys to understanding the sea
- How to start/when to stop
- Planning and spontaneity
- Getting to the point, and what to ignore
- Dealing with changes in light and color
