To me, aspen trees are beautiful no matter what the season. I love how the silvery bark reflects the light and the interesting textures and colors found on them. Let me take you for a walk in one of the many aspen groves I discovered this past summer in Wyoming. I’ll start with a monochromatic under painting in three values and build on top of that. I’ll show you how I work from a number of references including plein air pieces, photos, thumbnails, and small color studies to create the larger studio piece.

July 11 – Lana Ballot demo on Oceans & Seascapes
We will be having our July meeting on Saturday, July 11th from 10-12 online. PSNC has purchased Zoom to make it easier for you to join the meeting. It was felt that this has become the popular platform of choice and many of you may already be familiar with it.
We are very fortunate to be able to have a demonstration presented by Lana Ballot on Oceans/Seascapes. You may view her work at https://www.lanaballot.com/. An agenda and link to the meeting will be sent via email to all members the week before the meeting.
