Class Description: This three-day oil painting workshop will familiarize participants with processes they can use and adapt to their own work for painting winter landscapes. Topics covered include landscape composition and technique, painting en plein air in the winter environment, developing useful field studies for studio reference and studio processes for landscape work. We will work both en plein air and in the studio environment during the workshop. Each day includes instructor demonstrations and individual attention for each workshop participant. All levels of painters are welcome.

 

Class Location: The workshop takes place in the historic studio of E.L. Blumenschein in Taos, New Mexico and will include plein air sessions on the grounds of the Blumenschein home and museum. Blumenschein was one of the founding fathers of the Taos Society of Artists which was formed in 1915.

Located on historic Ledoux Street in downtown Taos, the E.L. Blumenschein Home and Museum is maintained much as it was when the artist and his family were alive. The home is filled with a superb collection of the Blumenschein family’s art, a representative sampling of works by other famous Taos artists, fine European and Spanish Colonial style antiques, and the family’s lifetime of personal possessions. The home beautifully illustrates the lifestyle of Taos artists in the first half of the twentieth century. This is a rare opportunity to paint in the studio of E.L. Blumenschein. The cost of the class will include a docent tour of the museum.
