All levels of experience welcome
Plein Air Pastel Painting In Santa Fe/Seven Weeks / Seven Different Locations 5:15 to 8:15 PM
Join us outside in the vivid and changing light of Santa Fe at twilight! We will focus on color, imaginative simplification and a vibrant and energetic use of pastel and mixed media technqiues. The process of the class will include both structure and concepts and loosening up and “letting go.”
Class study will include an ongoing focus on the relationship between light and dark tones and color. Seeing the “value” of a color will greatly enhance the strength of your composition. Pastel painting is also enlivened by energetic mark making. Knowing when to blend, making areas soft and graceful and when to leave marks as they are, retaining immediacy, is another focus of this series. Each class will include demonstration & technical instruction on the sequence of developing a pastel landscape. You must supply your own transportation and art materials. A supply list will be provided. Inquire about attending a part of the the series, if you would like to come but cannot attend ALL the sessions

Jane Shoenfeld's love of nature underlies all of her painting. This video includes her large studio abstractions, vivid plein air pastels, and a new series of paintings in response to poetry about global climate change and species demise. The film beautifully weaves short recordings of poetry, shots of the artist in her Santa Fe studio, and superimposed images of the actual landscape.
