Plein Air Workshop with Rod Weagant

May 17, 18 & 19
Location: Rod Weagant's Studio, and various beautiful locations in the Methow Valley
Cost: $165

This workshop will be held on May 17-19. Rod Weagant will present a slide show and discussion on the evening of May 17. This discussion is open to the public.

On Saturday and Sunday participants will spend the days creating art inspired by the picturesque Methow environment. Any choice of medium can be used, however the demonstration will be done in oil painting. The instruction will adapt to all levels of experience. The class will create art outdoors unless weather prohibits, so dress accordingly. This Plein Air workshop will be held in conjunction with “Interpreting the Methow”, an exhibit opening June 8. Workshop participants will have the option to display a piece or more in the gallery during the show.
