April 30th: Plein Air Workshops during ArtFields® 2014

Take in the beauty of the outdoors while creating works of art during our Plein Air Workshops. Choose from two diverse workshops: Palette Knife Oil Painting with Karen Weihs at Moore Farms Botanical Garden on April 30, or Plein Air Iconic Building/Urban Landscape with William McCullough outside the Imperial Tobacco Building on May 2. Each workshop is $45 and spaces are limited, so get your tickets now.

Karen Weihs is a North Carolina resident with ties to nearby Williamburg County where her grandfather was a tobacco farmer. She will demonstrate how to create a 30" x 30" palette knife oil painting while answering questions from attendees. She will then encourage participants to try their hand at creating their own works using three primary colors.

South Carolina native William McCullough will teach participants how to simplify the subject of an urban landscape of iconic buildings while discovering how painting from life helps one observe the effects of light and atmosphere, with special attention placed on learning to see mass in art.
