Painting from the Landscape of Stout's Island

June 13 - 17, 2010
Instructor: Pamela Valfer

Enjoy the natural wonders of Stout's Island as you create a painting on location. You will learn how to capture your observations as you study color, light, and atmosphere. Pamela Valfer, CVA faculty member, will cover basic elements of painting, including color mixing, composition, and technique.

You'll learn to translate what you see to the canvas. Create dynamic compositions through quick studies and capture the landscape in a sustained painting, whether your view is panoramic, close-up, or in-between. Beginning or advanced levels are welcome. You may work in either oil or acrylic. A supply list will be provided.
