More Information:
“Plein Air Painting is a truly magical experience! My goal when painting Plein Air is to translate the over abundance of info into a simplified and more impressionistic rendering. On this painting tour my goal is to help students zero in on strong composition / design while capturing the essence, light and beauty of the area. I encourage artists to paint what speaks to them whether it’s a grand vista or a more simple subject. Each student will receive positive instruction at whatever level they’re at.
Sharing my skills with others is so rewarding and brings me great joy! I want this to be a fun, positive experience for all who come!
Beginner to advanced painters welcome.”
