ON-LOCATION
PROGRAMS
This summer, we have some really great off-site workshops. Please feel free to call the school for more information.
PAINTING OUTDOORS WITH DAN YOUNG
IN GLENWOOD SPRINGS, COLORADO
Glenwood Springs, Colorado
Aug 9-13, 2010
Meets 9:00 AM-4:00 PM
Tuition: $660.00
Level: All Levels
The emphasis of this class will be working on location in beautiful western Colorado. The class will base out of Glenwood Springs, Colorado. There will be a great variety of subjects to challenge the students. We will work on the skills necessary for gathering information in the field and editing it to create stronger paintings. Young feels that the way you start a painting is just as important to how you finish it. You must have an organized thought process when you approach a painting. We will work on the importance of composition, drawing, values and color; the fundamentals necessary for creating a good painting.
The summer weather in Colorado is very pleasant but can change in five minutes, so come prepared for all weather conditions.
Bring your paint gear, a sandwich, sunscreen and a sense of humor for an enjoyable week in Colorado!
* Glenwood Springs, Colorado, is just 40 miles from the Aspen/Vale area. Glenwood Springs is a three hour drive from the Denver Airport, and just one hour from both Grand Junction and Eagle Airport (Eagle Airport has direct flights from a number of major cities).
