Capturing Nature through Paint for Teens/ NOV 6-20
WHEN: 3-class session / Thursdays, November 6-20, from 5:30-7 PM
DESCRIPTION: Teens artists, under the guidance of Jen Aitchison will study a curated selection of plein air paintings on display in the attached gallery, They’ll also explore the work of Claude Monet, whose Impressionist paintings transformed the way artists see and paint nature—capturing fleeting light, movement, and mood with expressive brushwork.
Building on this inspiration, students will learn essential painting techniques, including color mixing, brushwork, and layering, to recreate the natural beauty of dunes, lakes, and surrounding landscapes. Emphasizing both realism and expressive abstraction, this class offers a strong foundation in capturing the essence of nature, while encouraging each teen to develop their personal style and creative voice.
After School Art classes are offered every month from September-May for ages 5-18. During each 4-class monthly session, students will explore an arts-related topic, movement, or technique through a variety of 2D media such as watercolor, pastel, graphite, acrylic, or printmaking. Because each monthly session offers a different theme and set of projects, families are welcome to register for one session, a few, or the whole year!
