I encourage you to work small and quickly to capture the spirit and sense of place in the glowing morning. Learning to paint what you see is the beginning. The intricacies of edges and brushwork lead the viewer’s eye through the composition as punctuations in paint evoking emotion, poetry, and magic in your painting. Contrast is the key to expressing the light effect. As you hone your awareness of color contrasting value and temperature, you will bring brilliance and presence into your paintings!

Meet on location, weather permitting, to paint the morning light.

  • At 8:30 I will demonstrate, and you may watch or paint along.

  • Until 11:30 I will offer individual instruction at your easel. We may share our work while snacking as a break. You may stay and paint as long as you like.
