Description:
Plein Air Painter William Kalwick will begin each day with a demonstration of his painting techniques. He will discuss how to choose the composition from the subject matter at hand and how to concentrate on the focal area. Students will learn how to manage the changing light, and the use of color as it relates to depth perception, thereby creating an illusion of space on a two dimensional surface.
