Description - Get ready for an unforgettable plein-air painting experience with renowned artist Calvin Liang! You’ll have the opportunity to participate in a thrilling 3-day workshop led by Liang himself in and around the Monterey Peninsula. Calvin will begin with a demonstration each day, then he will spend time with each student throughout the rest of the day.
Plein air painting is a foundational part of training the eye to better understand the concepts of composition, design, and color harmony. The lessons will include:
How to plan a composition that will be most effective for the artist’s intentions and preferences
How to better see and use warm and cool colors in the landscape;
How to command hardness and softness of the edges to create space in a painting;
How to simplify the subject matter through the use of basic design, value, color, and drawing skills;
How to consider the reasons for different paint surface textures and brushstroke direction over the forms; and
How to get the best possible results in a short time.
