Learn techniques and traditions of “Old Master” landscape painters

Hudson River Painters, from Constable to Monet. The workshop
concludes with the ideas and techniques of Van Gogh and Cezanne.
For example, the compositional ideas and techniques for luminous
translucence in oil of the Dutch painters will be demonstrated. The
palette choices, brushstrokes, compositions and color theories of
simultaneous and successive contrast of the French Impressionists
will also be demonstrated. With Hudson River painters, the class will
trace their European influences, drawing and design systems as well
as oil sketching techniques. The workshop will cover centuries of
historic techniques (lost systems in watercolor and oil) through daily
lecture-demonstrations followed by personal attention and counsel.
The class will explore varieties of landscape locations and methods in
the surrounding area. A suggested supply list will be provided.
Beginners through advanced students are invited. The instructor
wishes you a pleasing adventure of painting on location coupled
