NEW! Plein Air Workshop

 with John Stuart Pryce

September 1-5, 2008

Learn the techniques of Plein-Air painting with John at a personal level regardless of your ability.   He will share with you how to eloquently capture on canvas what you see and feel.  

You will learn how to observe and paint the effects of light and how to become aware of colour temperature, values and edges. 

This workshop leads up to the Quadra Island Third Annual Plein Air Paint Out as part of  the International Plein Air Painters Worldwide Paint Out September 6-7.

Biography

John's love for art began at a very early age, as he discovered the great satisfaction derived from his ability to draw and paint. He continued developing his artistic interests, and eventually became an art major at the highly acclaimed H.B. Beal Tech. in London, Ontario. Since that time John has worked and studied in Montreal, Chicago and Toronto.

During a successful career as an architectural illustrator, his work was used in projects around the world. His seemingly loose yet eloquent technique is the result of years of experience in the disciplines of drawing, colour and composition.

John currently divides his time between painting and sharing his artistic knowledge with others through his painting workshops.

"The purest and most rewarding form of painting, in my opinion, is "en plein air" as it challenges all of the skills and discipline of the artist."
