Kick off the new year by painting with the luxurious medium of oil paint mixed with cold wax. Let’s stretch our notion of what a landscape is and take it to new levels: looser, freer, and a bit more unconventional. Working in a series using multiple layers of oil and cold wax, we will create paintings using vibrant color, mark-making, swaths of paint, and incorporating lines and circles into our work, reimagining the landscape.
