For two days during the Plein Air Artists
Colorado Taos Workshop, Joe Anna Arnett will conduct
a very different and original workshop. One day will
be devoted to exploring the possibilities of rich and colorful
outdoor still life subjects. Artists will tap all of their
Plein air skills: composition, atmosphere, the constant
movement of light, as well as drawing skills. Another day
will be an exciting opportunity to paint a dramatic costumed
model out of doors. The model's attire will be a surprise.
Our model will first strike some quick poses for a warm-up
and then hold longer poses. There is historic artistic precedent
for both the still life and the model out of doors in the
works of John Singer Sargent and some of the Russian greats
and we will enjoy a rich experience bringing our own interpretations
to both.
