This is a class for painters of all levels. Beginners are welcome.
Fall Landscape class starting next weekend- Saturdays 10-1, Oct 8th thru Nov 5. Fee $180.
We will spend the entire class in one location (Still to be determined- considering a park on the river) allowing
folks the time to work on a piece for multiple sessions.

A Kiss from Johnny, by Robert Harris (1952) |
I have a very hands on approach to my teaching and give very thorough critiques (rarely as intimate as the above painting indicates). Come enjoy the cooler weather and the fall colors. With "
Cincinnati's most charming painting teacher",
we will meet at a scenic parks to learn to
sketch and to paint with oils. Drawing on the ideas of impressionism,
you will practice the techniques needed to complete painted sketches,
including basic composition, value, pattern, color spotting, and
covering the canvas. Then, building on those skills, you will complete a
larger fully realized landscape painting that will capture the
impression of light and color of the Cincinnati landscape. Details and
directions to the various locations will be given in class. No
experience necessary
One thing I will be stressing is that what we are doing is
landscape painting- and not
Plein Air. We are Americans! Students are not allowed to call it 'plein
air' unless they are actually French.
