“A Plein Air Painting Mini-Workshop With Cory Wright"
Thursday, September 14th, 2023
8:30am-12pm ($75)
Join visiting artist, Cory Wright, as she guides you through her process of interpreting the landscape with an artist’s eye. From scouting possible painting subjects, to developing a strong composition at the start, Cory will demonstrate how the orchestration of values, selection of colors, and use of varied brushstrokes enables her to quickly & efficiently clarify her thoughts around a unified theme in her alla prima plein air paintings.
For the first hour Cory will demonstrate using oils, however, this workshop is open to acrylic painters as well who can benefit from many of the same painting principles. For the remaining 2 hours you will paint around the Mill Pond-Scipio Creek area, and receive one-on-one instruction at your easel, followed by a group critique for anyone who would like.
This workshop is intended for students with some experience. Bring the supplies you are comfortable with, and whatever size canvas you would like. For more information and to register, please call/text or email the gallery: 305-393-4306 or liveoakgallery@gmail.com.
