Paint like an Impressionist
Instructor: Marjorie Perrin
June 13th 10am – 4pm $100 per person
Location: Allure Art Center – 419 Rappahannock Drive, White Stone, VA
Learn to paint color in outdoor light. Paint from still life arrangements of color blocks and other simple objects in order to understand impressionist color. Learn to see the warm and cool differences in light and shadows and observe how the light key and surrounding colors influence each other. Understand color by understanding these relationships. These lessons are applicable to all genres of painting and all mediums. Marjorie will demonstrate these principles in Oil but the class is open to Pastel and Watercolor artists if you already have experience in those mediums. You will need to bring your own outdoor painting set up and a basic supply list will be provided.
This class is for students with basic drawing and painting experience. The focus of the class will be on Oil painting techniques but Pastel and Watercolor artists who are experienced in those mediums, already have a full set of supplies and are equipped to use them outdoors may participate and will receive instruction in those mediums.
