Capturing the Landscape: Minimal Shapes & Color Workshop with Karlene McConnell

Thursday, Nov. 21, 2024 | 11:00am - 2:00pm

Both beginners and advanced artists can benefit from this workshop meant to have artists look at the landscape through a different lens. Learn to abstract and simplify what we view around us. Depth and space will be created using only flat shapes and a limited palette. All levels are welcome.

Students are responsible for the following supplies:

• at least two canvases (any size)

• any three colors of acrylic paint plus white

• one or two medium to large paintbrushes

• a photo of a landscape that can be cut up

Seats are limited. Registration will close when workshop is full.
