Fundamentals of Studio Landscape Painting

Workshop | Available

This time-tested curriculum is designed for the serious student wishing to develop fundamentals in landscape painting, including a greater understanding of values, color mixing, atmosphere, and composition. The focus will also be on developing more fluid brushwork and a personal statement representing outdoor subject matter. Though students will accomplish eight to ten painting studies, the primary focus will be on imparting the necessary information for self-evaluation and growth beyond the scope of the workshop. Instruction will include lectures, presentation, demonstrations, class critique, and plenty of one-on-one time with students. Demos will be conducted using acrylics, however the principles taught apply universally to any variety of media. Finally, a class that deciphers age-old concepts broken down into straightforward, easy-to-understand mechanisms. www.johnpoon.net
