Painting Trees From Trunk to Treetop
Join Peggy for a live oil painting demonstration all about trees — those leafy models who never complain about holding a pose.
As she paints, she’ll share how to capture the unique personality of different trees — because cottonwoods don’t behave like pines, and neither looks like generic green lollipops. Gesture, structure, and the subtle traits that give trees character will be covered
We’ll also tackle mixing fresh, luminous greens without drifting into “green pea soup,” and explore how trees change in shape, value, edges, and color as they recede into the distance.
Please register for the Artist Talk/Demo. There is no fee to attend although donations in support of the Olmsted Plein Air Invitational are always welcome.
