Welcome to a workshop designed to give students a solid approach to plein air painting. Students will be working and staying on the grounds of Arcosanti. After breakfast our days will begin with an informative demonstration to show you what steps to take in your approach to plein-air painting. After the demo students will be allowed to paint for the remainder of the day. After painting students will gather to have a light discussion on how they did during the day and what help they need to move forward.

Key points will be: How to select what to paint, How to plan what to paint using small sketches, Establishing values Pre-mixing your colors, Painting Techniques, How to know when to stop painting. All levels are welcome, but some experience will help. If you are new to painting please reach out to me so that I may help you prepare for this exciting new stage. I want every student to learn and grow as an artist. www.amerybohling.com

Bohling, Amery

Amery Bohling is a full-time artist based in Scottsdale Arizona where she owns Amery Bohling Fine Art Studio/Gallery. Recognized as a skilled artist, her work vividly portrays the enduring strength of the West’s landscapes while skillfully capturing its' light. Most widely known for her vibrant straight forward paintings of the canyon, her work is a combination of old world and new West. Providing a contemporary perspective of traditional western landscapes, Bohling often features local life living within the landscape. Amery’s appreciation of the environment comes from “a desire to paint the landscape in its natural state and to preserve these beautiful locations for others to enjoy and future artists to visit.” She has participated in national and international art exhibitions and is featured in multiple Art magazines including the cover page of Arizona Highway’s February 2019 issue celebrating the Grand Canyon National Park’s Centennial. A sought-after instructor, she teaches primarily at Scottsdale Artists School. Bohling has recently released two instructional videos with Streamline Video/Liliedahl Production: Seascape Secrets and Painting the Grand Canyon. She has also been a main stage speaker at the Tucson and a speaker at the San Diego Plein Air Conventions.
