Plein Air Painting Workshops Summer 2025

THIRD HOUSE NATURE CENTER PRESENTS

PLEIN AIR PAINTING with BARBARA THOMAS

Barbara Thomas will lead our workshop, guiding students in the use of paint materials, setting up your painting, color mixing, principles of composition, light and shadow, creating distance, all the elements that go into creating a landscape painting.  

We will use gouache watercolor or oils. Students will bring their own materials and easels.
