Plein-air-without-panic-simple-set-up

A 3-hour class designed to take the fear out of making art outside with a non-traditional twist.   Creating art outside is like putting together a wonderful meal ~ Judith Lochbrunner

Class 1 “Desert” – paint the fun part to begin with and savor the Main Course – lay out the design.

Class 2 “Soup” – Determine the Values (lights & darks)

Class 3 “hors d’oeuvre” – Crafting the finished painting & showing it off with good presentation.

Judith’s love of plein air (outdoor) painting has combined her love of the outdoors with her love of painting. She truly appreciates that the landscape changes each day in beautiful ways to create endless artistic inspiration.  Here is a video of Judith on the class:  https://www.screencast.com/t/kuwaTpkOKT
