Join celebrated plein air artist, Kevin Macpherson, author of three best-selling plein air books, "Fill Your Oil Paintings With Light and Color"," Painting The Landscape Inside and Out" and "Reflections on a Pond: A Visual Journal," for an inspiring learning experience.
Kevin takes the mystery out of picture making through demonstrations, lectures and
challenging lessons. Beginning students will find encouragement and more advanced students will benefit from Kevin's 35 years of experience painting on location. Engage in a week filled with the art spirit and artistic dialogue. Take risks and explore under the tutelage of a passionate instructor. Learn to simplify the chaos and nature, understand how capture light with convincing values and grasp the elements of composition. React intuitively while painting en plein air and reflect thoughtfully in the studio for successful paintings.
Kevin offers you tools to assess your work and the confidence to let your true voice rule. You are encouraged and nurtured to express your personal style while grasping the fundamentals that apply to all mediums. Enjoy personal attention and group critiques in a congenial atmosphere. Bring a limited palette; lots of small canvases and a strong work ethic but most of all don't leave home without your sense of humor. Kevin will keep you laughing all the while you learn.
