Landscape Painting - Working the Land

Course Number: ARTS1540

Please note: This course is not suitable for beginners.
This course is designed to assist you to move beyond the literal and develop a personal voice in painting the land. Explore ways to interpret landscape, distill the painting possibilities in a scene, and apply relevant principles of design and technique to the work. Analyze observed landscape and reconstruct it in paint with a mind to developing a unique style in this discipline. Using an analytical as well as a direct painterly response, one can refresh and personalize the landscape painting experience. Please note that this is not necessarily a plein air course or an exercise in studio abstraction, rather a selection of painting strategies with a goal to helping you develop. With this in mind, to be productive and versatile, work will be done in acrylics.
