SUMMARY:Byrdcliffe Plein Air Workshop with Anne Leith
DESCRIPTION:Saturday\, June 7 & Sunday\, June 8\, 2025 from 11 AM – 2 PM \nReserve your space: https://bit.ly/43Siqc4 \n$180 Byrdcliffe Members / $200 Not-yet-members \nAnne Leith will lead a 2-day plein-air painting workshop on the grounds of the historic Byrdcliffe Colony. Participants will learn basic techniques for set-up\, framing up of the image\, laying down paint in a rapid and effective way\, and fabulous mark-making. \nMaterials to bring: \n\nPortable easel: Many portable easels include a small palette and a drawer for paint. If you prefer to work larger on a different easel\, you may want to bring a folding table and a bag for your gear. A bungee cord is an excellent thing to have to keep the easel from blowing over in most weather conditions.\nSurface to paint on of course. This can be panel or canvas\, but remember it needs to have a stable surface. If you work on paper it might blow away.\nBrushes\, solvents\, paint – please note that you may use any kind of paint you prefer\, with the exception of spray paint.\nRags\nWater\, a hat\, and bug spray\n\nABOUT ANNE LEITH \nI am primarily a painter of places.  I have been a plein-air painter for many years\, working in all weather conditions directly from nature. I also paint landscapes in the studio from memory\, which brings in an abstract vision\, more dreamlike in quality. \nMetallic foil is something I enjoy using in my oil paintings. It adds a reflective light element that resembles the sky and water\, attempting to echo nature’s constantly shifting range of tones and colors. \n \nSince she was very young Leith has been consistently making art\, indeed\, it would be impossible to stop her. She is an adventurer\, and has lived in Europe (France\, England\, Italy) as well as New York\, CA\, VT and New Hampshire. All these places have contributed to her vision of the world and nature\, which feeds her inspiration. Although primarily known as a landscape painter\, the work equally speaks to her interest in bold\, abstract mark-making\, and sometimes\, a magical ‘Alice in Wonderland’ sensibility. \nCurrently based in the Hudson River Valley\, Leith’s new work reflects the light on the river and the clouds at sunset. She includes metallic leaf in some of her work\, which adds to this effect of luminosity.
