Algoma en plein air
a
painting workshop in oils and acrylics with
John Stuart Pryce
September 15 to 20, 2010
by John Stuart Pryce
" The
purest and most rewarding form of painting, in my opinion, is
"en plein air" as it challenges all of the skills and discipline of the
artist."
"The
quest for eloquence in my painting is
ongoing. Strong design elements, an appropriately chosen colour
palette, spontaneous brush work and underlying luminosity, are key
elements that allow me to share with others what I see and
feel." A playwright once wrote: Without doubt, beauty is to
be found
everywhere, but it takes an artist to see it and understand it."
My goal: To share
with
others the beauty that my
eyes see, my heart feels, and my soul yearns to understand."
The
focus of
this plein air and studio course will be to discuss and develop methods
of painting that will improve your painting skills and confidence. Each
lesson will include discussions of the basics such as composition,
colour mixing, values, edges and colour temperature. All classes will
be started with a short demo by John. All students will be given
personal attention based upon their needs and each day will be
concluded with an honest and positive critique.
