Intermediate-Advanced | $25-$50 Materials and Studio Fees*
The main subject of this plein air painting workshop is to develop an understanding of how light truly behaves, and how to capture that in a convincing way in your practice. Participants will study the architecture of light in nature: how it defines form, directs attention, shapes color, and creates atmosphere. Through exercises and on-site demonstrations, we’ll focus on mastering value structure, temperature shifts, and the subtle transitions that give plein air pieces their sense of luminosity and truth. Emphasis will be put on training the eye to observe light with greater accuracy. By the end of the workshop, attendees will have a deeper understanding of how light operates in nature and how to harness it to create paintings that feel both convincing and alive.
*Materials and studio fees are charged to students based on studio usage and materials Touchstone is providing at the request of the instructor. Additionally, some instructors may also require that you bring certain materials and tools with you, in which case a list will be provided. Final cost of these fees will be posted at least two weeks ahead of the workshop to be paid in full prior to check-in.
