Tuesday November 12 10:00-1:00 join me at my home in Marlboro NY for this Plein Air experience. There are buildings, forest and late autumn gardens to inspire you.
All levels and abilities are invited. Artists are encouraged to work in any medium they are comfortable with.
This class is not specifically about medium but rather about the concepts and techniques that are universal to Plein Air painting.
Bring your easel, your painting supplies and a painting surface. Helpful to have a sketchbook, paper and pencil. This will be a one day event so consider the size you will be working on.
This 3 hour session will provide a demo, individual instruction and group critique -with plenty of time to paint!.
Please bring a snack, water, hat, and jacket. Keep an eye on the weather!
I am drawn to landscapes, capturing and preserving the views that have been seen over the years by so many. On location I work in pastels. I focus on that specific time of day. The time of day changes the light, the color, the atmosphere: it changes everything. Pastels afford me the use of pure pigment. The mark each pastel makes directly from my hand to the surface is exciting. In my studio I create with encaustic, based on my Plein Air experiences. Working with molten wax and fire has energy and spontaneity. Whether in the studio or on site each painting is a challenge to record a moment in time.
