The Impressionist Vision: American Impressionism
An All- Day Painting Workshop
In
the late 19th century a number of American painters adopted the style
and working methods of the French Impressionists, revolutionary in its
bright sketchy brushwork as well as unconventional compositions and
every day subject matter. Working both at home and abroad, these
American artists created an astonishing range of truly inspired works
from sun splashed seasonal landscapes and vigorous bustling cityscapes
to tranquil intimate domestic scenes..
Paint
along with James as we explore in depth some seminal works from key
artists of the movement to discover the process and procedures used to
create paintings alive with a variety of atmospheric effects of color,
light, and space.
We have had a great time at our past all-day intensive painting workshops,
(A little art history-A lot of painting)
I hope you will be able to join us this time!
