Introduction to Plein Air - Oil Painting in the Great Outdoors!
Offered By: Skillshare
Course Description
Overview
Welcome to this introductory course on painting "en plein air" with oil paint. Painting outdoors is a great way to get in touch with nature and push yourself as an artist. The techniques examined in this course can be applied to many mediums you wish to use outdoors, but I wanted to tackle the most challenging (and messy!) medium first -- oil paint. I will give you tips and strategies to make a portable, efficient plein air studio. I will also show you ways to get started with minimal equipment and how to paint discreetly if you feel intimidated by painting in public. I have included several full-length demos in which I paint under varying circumstances. I hope you enjoy this course and I look forward to seeing your own plein air paintings!
