Monet & Pissarro : Eyes of the Impressionists Workshop April 29th by Jim Hempel

The Eyes of the Impressionists: Monet & Pissarro Oil Painting Workshop

Paint along with me as we explore the work of two leaders of the French Impressionist movement, Claude Monet and Camille Pissarro. The work of these two remarkable painters with their dedication to plein air painting demonstrates an extraordinary sensitivity to atmospheric light and color. Monet and Pissarro developed innovative design and compositional strategies to create pictorial environments of great depth and nuanced textures.

We have had a great time at previous workshops in the studio. I hope you will be able to join us for this one!
