“Immerse yourself in nature and feel the happiness of painting like Monet, Klimt and numerous other painters in the middle of an exuberant poppy field.”
We will meet directly at a colorful poppy field, where there will be a high density of flowers. The day will start with a demo showing the key steps for representing the poppies and the surrounding nature in a compelling manner. We will discuss the composition, the importance of perspective and how to mix colors to obtain vibrant and harmonious mixes. Participants will then develop freely their own paintings (in oils or acrylics), under Peter’s close guidance. The course will be canceled/postponed in case of rainy weather. Schedule: from 9AM till 1PM and from 2PM till 6PM Venue: the course will take place either in the Nyon area or near the foothills of the Jura near Cossonay. The exact location will be identified shortly before the course, based on the abundance of poppy flowers. Detailed directions will be provided on how to reach the venue. Materials: the list of recommended materials will be supplied after registration. Important: participants must bring with them a large hat, sunscreen and large quantities of drinking water.
