Begin the Artisan MADE weekend outdoors with featured artist Renee Smith for a special Plein Air Painting session.
During this two-hour workshop, Renee will guide participants through her expressive, impressionistic approach to painting while working from the landscape and surroundings of Drayton Mills. Participants will explore ways to observe color, light, shape, and movement, then translate what they see into a painting that feels loose, personal, and full of life.
Rather than focusing on creating a perfect representation of the landscape, Renee will encourage participants to interpret the scene through their own perspective while sharing techniques for simplifying what they see, choosing a composition, building layers of color, and capturing the feeling of a place.
This bonus session is a wonderful way to begin the Artisan MADE weekend, creating outdoors, slowing down enough to notice your surroundings, and exploring how your own artistic perspective influences what makes its way onto the canvas.
All materials and instruction are included. No previous plein air painting experience is required.
