Want To Be A Plein Air Artist?

SYRACUSE - Chautauqua-Wawasee and the Northern Indiana Plein Air Artists Association are collaborating to offer a Beginners and Intermediate Plein Air Workshop on May 29-31.  
Any budding artist who’d like to expand their horizons by Plein Air painting will want to consider this workshop led by David M. Seward, an award-winning Plein Air artist, and instructor David Broerman, founder of NIPPAA.
Equipment, paint, canvases and lunch will be provided.
Plein Air is the act of painting outdoors; the concept of landscape portraiture by which the artist paints directly onto canvas at the location of the landscape. The three-day workshop will focus on how to create a great landscape. Each day will have morning and afternoon demonstrations followed by personal painting time with plenty of one-on-one coaching. Topics include linear perspective, creating thumb nail sketches, Notan design methods, composition choice, palette and local color choice, the underpainting and how to finish.
See ChautauquaWawasee.org and www.northernindianapleinair.org for more information and how to register.
The sessions are 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. May 29-31. Each day will be a different location around Lake Wawasee and Syracuse Lake. Cost is: three days: $300 for public,
