Windowscapes & Landscapes
The complexity of the landscape makes it a fitting subject for anyone interested in merging observation and abstraction through painting, drawing, mixed media. Work indoors from reproductions and photographs or the view from your window, to prepare for future open-air painting and drawing. Perfect your skills with layout, spatial relationships, color, paint handling and mark mark-making. Explore and capture your relationship to space, noticing details, at times, practice slowing down to be in that space and at other times work with speed of execution and economy of vision, simplify and reinterpret your subject. Study examples of naturalistic, expressive, abstract landscapes across cultures and time periods; including the connection between landscape drawing, social, and personal narrative. A supply list will be emailed upon registration.
