{WCAP: FIELDWORK} Painting and Drawing Outdoors

This last summer I was invited to do a class at Waukesha Community Art Project and came up with the course "FIELDWORK: Painting and Drawing Outdoors" (tm) to gain inspiration, appreciation, and observational skills in nature.

We created journals and pressbooks:



We worked on warm up techniques indoors:


We traveled outside to paint in several different places:








In the end, we took our favorite items and framed them with thrifted frames and background mats that brought out the best of our colors. There was a small group show with these paintings in WCAP. Usually, items sold are donated by the students and funds return to the centre.
