I have started a new series of plein air paintings. I try to get out at least once a month to go plein air painting. These paintings are from Burnsville, NC (bottom two), and Jonesborough, TN (top).

This weekend, I will be plein air painting at the Ginger Kemp Garden during the annual Art in the Garden Tour in Charlotte, NC. This event is sponsored by The Mint Museum of Art and the Charlotte Garden Club. After the tour on Sunday, come to the Mint Museum of Art for the after-party and auction. Each artist will be auctioning a piece of art to benefit the Mint Museum and Garden Club. For more details and ticket information, see http://www.charlottegardenclub.org/.

Workshops will deal with the problems artists face during the beginning, middle, and end stages of a painting. Through demo, discussion, and critiques, Artist and Instructor Paul Keysar will help participants develop a higher understanding of and gain a greater confidence in painting the landscape in plein air. He will cover topics such as, how to work with your materials, the use of drawing as a foundation in painting, color choices, the importance of a good composition, and more. Paul will start each workshop with a short lecture and discussion time, followed by a demonstration. The remainder of each day will be spent painting the landscape with each student receiving individual guidance as needed.
Upon RSVP, supply lists and directions will be emailed to you.
I am teaching several oil painting classes and plein air painting workshops in the Charlotte, NC, area this spring, as well as a wood cut workshop. I am also available for private lessons for individuals or small groups. View a list of current and upcoming classes and workshops I am teaching.
