[Date • Time • Location]
This workshop offers considerations when painting individual rocks, rock groups, and stone slabs in a plein air setting. A demonstration will offer techniques and insights into capturing beauty, variety, and unity with the goal of painting rocks that look and feel like rocks. Participants will then have an opportunity to practice newly learned insights by starting a painting of their own.
Materials List:
Notebook & pen for taking class notes
Painting supplies including portable easel
Preferred paint palette: include a warm and cool version of each of the primary colors, white, black, alizarine crimson
A panel or stretched canvas (I prefer linen) toned with a slightly warm color. I use a thin layer of raw umber mixed with a touch of white.
