KEN AUSTER

OIL PAINTING - THE LANDSCAPE ON LOCATION

JUNE 26 - 30

Tuition: $425

This workshop will focus on plein air painting outdoors. We will work on location every day, weather permitting. There will also be time for lecture information and demonstrations. We will focus on several key points throughout the week: understanding and simplifying shapes while balancing warm and cool colors, laying down a foundation quickly while creating focal points and developing the overall painting. Creating atmospheric perspective and composition devolpment will also be addressed and there will be plenty of individual attention.

THE INSTRUCTOR: Auster, a native Californian began his art career in silk screen and graphic design, while studying illustration at CSLB. In the 1990's he began plein air painting and focused on his natural ability for painting a "moment in time charged with a hint of narrative drama." Auster is a signature and founding member of the Laguna Plein Air Painters Association, the California Art Club and Oil Painters of America. He has participated in numerous exhibitions, and his works are included in permanent collections worldwide.
