CE-ART 2020PE - Painting En Plein Air in 24 Hours

Experience the magic of painting outdoors in this immersive landscape painting course. Students will explore a variety of scenic local sites, capturing nature directly from observation. Emphasis will be placed on color mixing, the effects of light and shadow, and strong compositional strategies. Inspired by the plein air traditions of the Impressionists and the Hudson River School, students will be introduced to diverse techniques, including the use of water-mixable oil paints. This course meets entirely offsite; rain dates will be scheduled as needed.
