SUMMARY:POSTPONED: AIR - Plein Air Panel Discussion
DESCRIPTION:THIS EVENT IS BEING POSTPONED. \nAs part of this year’s Artists in Residence Program events for the public\, we’re excited to offer the opportunity for an in depth discussion on creating artwork en plein air!   \nPlein air is the practice of creating artwork (painting\, drawing\, pastels\, watercolor etc) outdoors\, directly from the subject.  The words ‘plein air’ are French for ‘in the open air.’ Many artists are passionate about working en plein air and base a large part of their creative practice accordingly.  Others create outdoors periodically\, when the weather or scenery is perfect. Some artists use preliminary work done on site as a first step in a larger process.  Regardless of how artists engage with outdoor creation\, the processes are varied\, personal and fascinating.  \nPlease join us in the Fivesparks Gallery on Saturday\, February 15 from 12:15-1:30pm for an engaging discussion with several local enthusiastic and experienced plein air artists. They will share information about their processes\, techniques\, philosophies and supplies. \nParticipating artists are: Keith Demanche of Rochester\, NH\, Ann Marie Hershberger of Bolton\, MA\, Judy Warner of Harvard\, MA and Ann Gillespie of Bolton\, MA. \nBring your questions and curiosity!  \nThis is a FREE event.  \n \nThis program is funded in part by a grant from the Harvard Cultural Council\, a local agency which is supported by the Mass Cultural Council\, a state agency.
