Plein air painting: Oils or Acrylic with Todd Bonita

$75 for NAA members / $95 non-members

Plein air painting is the practice of painting outside, or as the French term, "en plein air", literally translates to, "in the open air".

Join us with your paint box for a full day of outdoor painting and convening with nature and learning to see like an artist. I will begin with a lecture and demonstration on capturing light, color and atmosphere on canvas using a simple Impressionistic approach.  We will discuss choosing a motif, composing a harmonized design, seeing value shapes, accurate drawing, and infusing visual poetry into your motif.  Students will spend the rest of the day painting while I provide artistic guidance with side-by-side easel assistance.  This one day workshop is packed with valuable information that has been passed down from the masters on how to simplify the outdoor painting process.
