Study to Studio

Eleinne Basa art Studios and the PAPJC has invited well known instructor and Plein Air Master Kenn Backhaus to teach a 5 Day "Study to Studio" plein Air Workshop.

Class Description:
As a Plein-Air Artist, you have been on location painting and have collected a number of small studies. Now you want to take those studies to the next stage; which may be creating a larger format painting in the studio. This will be the challenge of this workshop.  We will spend approximately two and one half days outdoors collecting studies and the remainder of the week we will create larger format paintings in the studio from these studies.  Kenn will explain through lecture and demonstration the process he goes through in collecting the outdoor study. Then he will explain through lecture and demonstration the considerations we must make to take that study to a larger studio painting.  Design decisions must be pondered, as well as keeping that fresh spontaneous feel which was captured in the small study. The use of photography will assist us to obtain additional information that we may not have had time to capture in that small on-location study. We will take this photographic information along with our studies and we will make proper use of it in our studio setting.
