Pastel & Oil Painting: Join Michael Chesley Johnson on a Plein air exploration of the landscape in and around historic Tubac. Locations include the Tubac Presidio Historical Park, the old Tumacacori Mission, spots along the Historic Anza National Trail and more. He'll show you how to capture the essence of the landscape quickly, to use intuitive color, and to follow up with as much detail as you need to achieve the degree of realism you desire. Each day starts with a lecture/demo, followed by plenty of time for student work. Michael gives personal attention at the easel, complete with helpful tips and suggestions. Each day will end with a critique. 4-day workshop $450 lunch included
