Painting the Tuscan Landscape

Dates: June 22 to July 3, 2009

Instructor: Shane Wolf

Location: Via Fiesolana 34/r, Florence.

Site location details will be provided each day.

In this two-week intensive course, Shane Wolf, instructor at the Angel Academy of Art, Florence, and Fellow of the Hudson River School for Landscape, will guide and accompany students through the landscape painting process, with a particular focus on traditional practices used by the Hudson River School painters. Students will spend the day on various beautiful locations, working directly from nature, rain or shine, in the company of the instructor. The workshop incorporates an introductory lecture, information on composition and color theory in nature, and various oil painting and drawing demonstrations.

Pioneers such as Leonardo and Dürer demonstrated the importance of the study of nature, spending time in the pursuit of the understanding of nature's form, structure and beauty. Their methods have inspired generations of landscape painters, including Thomas Cole, Frederick Church, Albert Bierstadt and many others. The Angel Academy of Art is offering a guided opportunity to work in the same spirit, drawing and painting the eternal allure of the Tuscan Landscape.

Please note that some locations will require a fair amount of walking while carrying your painting equipment.
