Description

This acrylic painting workshop invites participants to celebrate the arrival of summer by painting the landscape (en plein air). Using acrylic colours, participants will capture the beauty of early summer blooms, diverse plants, and heritage surroundings.

Your instruction Kai, will focus on foundational plein air techniques, including composition, underpainting, colour mixing, and brushwork, as well as strategies for working quickly outdoors in changing light conditions. Participants will leave with both practice sketches and a finished acrylic painting that reflects the freshness and energy of the season.

This workshop is ideal for those seeking to enhance their landscape painting skills, connect with nature, and draw inspiration from a heritage garden in full bloom.
