Painting outdoors is challenging. Learning what to select and what to omit to make a strong design and statement is the goal. We are not obligated to paint everything as it is, the camera does a better job.

Emphasis will be to simplify and organize shapes.

Beginning with a simple statement we capture the shapes, values and light source quickly and from there we will work toward a finished work.

Demonstrations supplemented with visual aids will help to clarify the key elements discussed. From a simple statement to a finished painting.

Class will begin with a short lecture and samples of my approach along with some of my completed field studies. From there we will go directly on location and begin painting. We will paint on location at all times. If sun is a problem, bring your umbrella (hat, sun block, water/fluids). In case of rain, students should bring photographs or small studies to work from while indoors.

Demonstrations will be part of the program, but probably not on a daily basis.

What is important to me, as a teacher, is to share whatever knowledge I have with my students. I have no secrets about the way I paint, my philosophy, or my approach. I want to give each student all I can through personal attention, direction, and group discussions.

There are no shortcuts in reaching our goals; just hard work and determination.
