I have been dreaming of offering a course like this for years and knew Marian Parsons would be the most perfect artist to create it!  There are often so many questions around plein air painting in regards to set up, capturing what you see, how to capture quickly and allow it to be your finished work or take it back to the studio etc. Thank you Marian for sharing how you capture beauty and inspiring others to do the same!

One of the most compelling things about art is being able to capture our response to a moment. A camera can capture the moment down to the last detail, but a drawing or painting tells the story of how the artist interpreted that moment.

Painting “en plein air” or “in open air” challenges an artist to capture the changing natural light conditions, weather, activity, and mood of a particular moment in a particular place. In this class, we will review the basics of painting outside from the gear and supplies to sourcing locations. We will also work on a few studies together to find compelling compositions and complete a final plein air painting in oils.
