It snowed overnight – a pure white canvas has been spread across the ground, waiting for the first warm orange and yellow light of dawn to spread across it. The boughs of pine and hemlock are heavy with the soft snow, and with a touch of wind the snow can again fill the air. Snow in motion, and the colors that light can paint it, will be the focus of this workshop. We will begin on Friday evening at 6:30 at the Clubhouse for a slide show and discussion, looking at paintings by masters like Monet and Homer, as well as contemporary artists including, Eric Aho, and Mark Boedges. We will regroup on Sunday back at the Schoolhouse for work and demos from 10:00 am – 4:00 pm. I will have photographs available for inspiration for a snow painting, and I invite you to bring any images you may have. Our goal will be to build a unique composition from multiple sources – with the most important source being your own experiences and observations stored in that personal photo file we all have in our head, and in our heart.
