Creative Impressions: Plein Air Painting Workshops

 

Would you like the opportunity to see things in a different light?

 

To coincide with the McCubbin: Last Impressions 1907-1917 exhibition the Art Gallery of Western Australia is running four plein air painting workshops in March.

Under the guidance of an experienced artist you'll explore Impressionist techniques and cover aspects of colour theory and composition in the open air surrounds of the Art Gallery of Western Australia.

During the painting workshop you will create your own Impressionist landscape using acrylic paint to take home.

No prior experience is necessary.
