Intermediate-Advanced* $40-$65 Materials and Studio Fees**
In this workshop, you will be guided through the ups and downs of plein air painting. Steven will give each participant individualized attention catered to their skill level. We all know how daunting plein air can be at times, so let’s work on making it a little simpler while still achieving growth.
*Each student should have previous experience with oil painting, whether it is studio or plein air, and a basic knowledge of drawing and perspective and familiarity with the basic tools and materials used in oil painting.
**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.
