Painting Beautiful Landscapesw/Marc AndersonOctober 5 & 69:00 AM - 4:00 PMLearn how to paint beautiful landscapes on location! In this class, we will discuss the fundamentals of painting en plein air (on location) as well as more advanced topics like drawing, composition, and color theory.
Day one of the workshop will begin with a 30 minute lecture and discussion on the core concepts of plein air painting. This will be followed by a 2.5 hour painting demonstration. Students are encouraged to ask questions throughout the lecture and demonstration.
The class will have a 1 hour lunch break.
Afterwards, students will begin work on their own paintings while Marc gives individualized instruction to each student. Class will end at 4pm, but students may continue to paint if they wish.
Day 2 will begin with a quick recap followed by a 3 hour demonstration. After a 1 hour lunch break, students will again spread out to tackle their own paintings. Marc will continue to make the rounds giving one-on-one instruction. The class will end with a group critique and discussion.
