LET’S PAINT OUTDOORS!
First class meets in the Filberg
Centre before heading outdoors
to paint one of several beautiful
locations in the Comox Valley.
Each session starts with an easy
to follow demonstration on an
important aspect of plein air
painting, including getting the
drawing down; steps to a great
painting; following the light; atmo-
spheric perspective; and capturing
the feel of the landscape. Partici-
pants then take to the easel to try
it out while Teresa is available to
answer questions and help out.
*Participants should be willing to
hike small distances to fabulous
views.
