Workshop Description:

In this class, you’ll learn how to paint a mountain vista or coastal seascape or scenic landscapes or a cityscape bathed in dynamic and sensational colors. We will use the techniques of the Impressionists and Post-Impressionists to understand color, light, atmosphere, and divisionist brushstrokes to make paintings that stir the soul. Come join us on this artistic adventure!
