Playing with Plein Air w/ Kristy Deetz

Intermediate - Advanced | TBD Materials and Studio Fees* Where can plein air painting take you? The first half of this explorational acrylic landscape painting workshop begins with traditional observational methods that focus on composition, gesture, drawing, and color mixing. The second half of the workshop covers approaches that will take observed landscape information into abstraction. Some of these strategies to layer forms and invent space include using stencils and block outs, exploring organic versus geometric formal organization, and inventing surfaces and tools to paint with. We will conclude the workshop by letting process or concept guide the outcome of a painting. Prerequisites: Some observational painting experience needed. *Materials and studio fees are charged to students based on studio usage and materials Touchstone is providing at the request of the instructor. Additionally, some instructors may also require that you bring certain materials and tools with you, in which case a list will be provided. Final cost of these fees will be posted at least two weeks ahead of the workshop to be paid in full prior to check-in. Schedule From: Jun 8 2026 to Jun 12 2026 Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday: 9:00am to 5:00pm
