Description
In this class we will explore textural painting using a palette knife and credit cards. We will gain experience with defining the horizon line in landscape painting. Students will work in acrylics on canvases to create vistas. The work of important landscape artists such as Turner, Monet and members of the Group of Seven will be discussed. Elizabeth will have a very hands on approach to the creation of each unique landscape painting.
A list of materials will be sent to each student. Supply List – Elizabeth Greisman
