Landscapes & Figurative Oil Painting Plein Air

Cynthia Edmonds

Cynthia says, "Painting 'plein air' is an exciting challenge, trying to capture the ever changing play of light and shadow. Using nature as inspiration does not mean simply duplicating the scene. Rather, my goal is to give the viewer the sense of actually being in the beautiful landscape."

Application of Paint on Yupo Carol Ann Sherman batchmoon1@aol.com
Carol Ann Sherman has always found a fascination with the interplay of time and color. She sees life as one major work of art full of whimsy and lush color. the class will give the painter a more secure grasp of how to control the application of paint on yupo. Yupo doesn't allow paint to be absorbed into the paper, therefore the pigment remains vivid and slippery when wet.

Since some of our instructors come a long distance, (by plane) we need to close registration six
weeks prior to the start of the workshop

We have a minimum number of students needed to run each class. If we do not have that number of
students registered, six weeks prior to the start of class, it will be cancelled. This is because we will
not be able to meet out expenses,

Written notice of cancellations will be accepted up to three weeks prior to the start of the workshop
with a refund, less $25.00 handling fee. There will be NO refund after that time, unless a replacement
is found.

Supply lists will be sent out as soon as the instructors forward them to the workshop.
