Layered Plein Air Landscapes with Shirley Hamilton

Acrylic and mixed media 

Explore landscapes with composition prompts and creative exercises designed to challenge thinking, the process, and the result. Participants will work with a limited primary color palette with various media playing with translucency of layers, interaction of the different medias, composition, value, and mark making.

There will be demos, creative exercises, discussion, and individual instruction.

Shirley is fascinated by the connection between art, science, ecology, microscopy, etc. As a recently retired high school art teacher, Shirley is excited to spend her time creating art and exploring all of those connections.
