May 2011 Meeting – Plein Air painting tips

May 23, 2011

May Program: Painting in Plein Air

When the Impressionists ventured out of their studios into nature to investigate and capture the effects of sunlight it was revolutionary. Today painting from life is a pursuit that challenges the novice as well as the finest artists in the world. For our May meeting, we learned all about plein air painting from two members of the Piedmont Outdoor Society (POPS). Judy Meyler discussed oils and our own Addren Doss emphasized pastels.
