Light in the Landscape Class, and December Dusk painting by Everglades artist Jo-Ann Sanborn

December Dusk, 2012, Jo-Ann Sanborn

Acrylic on canvas, 24x48

 

 

 

A new year begins with such promise.  Most of us love the idea of starting fresh.  it's a blank canvas.  What will you paint for the new year? 

 

Thinking about Light in the Landscape is a great way to start. I'll be teaching at the Marco Island Center for the Arts for a four week class on Monday afternoons in January.  We'll talk about how the light moves around forms, how it's different for different times of day, and about certain atmospheric conditions. 

 

Classes start with a short introduction to the subject, and we spend the rest of the time painting.  You can work from your photos or mine. 

 

So come along if you'd like to learn more about painting light.  We have a good time and learn a lot, too.
