The workshop starts with a lecture and demonstration Friday evening at The Atelier to discuss materials, gear, and process. Attendees will then paint twice a day, Saturday and Sunday mornings and afternoons. Richard Lack once said that if you want to learn about color you paint outside. Focus will be on recognizing the values that capture the light in a scene and the way colors recede into distance. Composition will also be discussed as well as practical tips for working quickly.

Friday evening will be at The Atelier for a lecture, demonstration and Q&A. Saturday and Sunday will be two 3-hour sessions each day: 8:30am to 11:30am and 1:30pm to 4:30pm.

Friday, 6:30pm–9:30pm, Saturday & Sunday, 8:30am–4:30pm

Autumn is one of the best times to be out on location studying the landscape as our state becomes saturated in color. This fall Bridget is offering an opportunity for students to paint the landscape “en plein air.” There will be a lecture on value and color in the morning, and students will have the opportunity to paint with instruction in the afternoon. Bridget will work with students of all skill levels, though some experience with painting outdoors may be helpful for this class. Bridget wants to offer opportunities for students who are interested in landscape painting to continue their study.
