About This Activity
Sketching outdoors is one of the best things artists can do for themselves. This year, plein air sketching will be more about the act of sketching than the medium. Use whatever sketching media you prefer. Anything from pencil, to watercolor and ink, Conté crayons and pencils, colored pencils, ink or watercolor alone, watercolor and gouache, or watercolor pencils or sticks. Choose a hardbound sketch book, watercolor or mixed media journal, a collection of brushes (including water brushes) and pencils, erasers, and a watercolor field kit. You will want to wear old clothes, a hat, carry sunscreen and insect repellent; bring lunch and hydration. Recreational seating optional. Ed will email you prior to each class with a location where each class will meet. *No Class: 7/4. **Special note about art materials: Please do not call our office about materials. Come to the first class with your favorite sketchbook and drawing pencils & pens. Suggested materials will be discussed by the instructor on the first day of classes. Thank you.
