Monthly Demonstration
Presenter: Rich Brimer
Demo: Plein Air Seascapes
Monday, April 27 4pm
Rich will do a demo of a seascape and how that relates to the plein air experience.
“When we stand at the edge of the ocean we can watch the ebb and flow of incoming waves along the shoreline. As an artist, we have choices to make with regard to what is in front of you. What is interesting? What to keep and what to keep simple or out all together?”
Join us for our monthly virtual demo via zoom. View videos of past demonstrations.
