Try it out! See more and connect with Nature by creating within it. Geared towards those with little to no prior experience in art, the workshop will focus on hands-on, outdoor sketching and painting as a means to deepen awareness and connection with Nature. Fundamental artistic skills will be developed through demonstration and doing, and an inquisitive and encouraging approach. Art materials are provided, and we’ll meet rain or shine, utilizing covered spaces as needed. Join us at the edge of lake and woods, explore painting, and see what is stirring.
The instructor is a local professional artist working primarily in a colorful abstract impressionist style. Most of her paintings are started outside, where she finds vitality and wonders of color and form. For more information, see www.alicekelsey.com.
What To Bring:
Wear clothing and shoes that will keep you comfortable and warm working outside. Layered garments work well for adjusting to conditions: baselayer, middle insulating layer, and outer rain/wind shell. Bring a small blanket/ tarp (to sit on sloping ground), folding chair, hat with brim, a water bottle (about 1L- we’ll use some for painting too). Remember to use sun and insect protection too!
