Painting Landscape PART 2

If you wish to go further with your landscape painting or you have taken How to Create a Landscape Painting (Part 1) this workshop is for you. You will learn the tips that professional artists use to produce the illusion of depth creating the magic of atmospheric prospective.

You will acquire skill in colour, colour mixing and how to manipulate it and how to making good colour decisions and what the most effective colour techniques are to create sparkling paintings with life.

The class sizes are kept small, so you get the individual attention you deserve in the professional art studio. You are encouraged to work at your own pace. Choose from sitting or standing with your own easel and professional lighting in the artist’s professional studio. Located in the heart of Wine Country, minutes from Mission Hill Winery. Your instructor is professional artist Louise Lambert, known for her captivating landscapes and vineyard paintings in the Valley.

What to bring to the studio:
Bring a good reference image. When choosing a photo reference, you will want one with good lighting and contrast. And of course, a subject that holds your interest. You will want to bring some images to work with and an 11” by 14” canvas. If you have your own acrylic paints and brushes bring them along, otherwise, you can use student-quality paint at the studio.

Easy parking: on Braeburn Street, where you will see the black door to the studio, which will be open, follow the short path to the studio.
