Plein Air Painting Lessons with Nora Harrington

SLOW DOWN.  LOOK.  REALLY  LOOK. 

What better way to enjoy yourself in nature than by creating a painting of what you see outdoors?

As a professional artist with over twenty years of teaching experience, I will guide you through the process of creating a plein air landscape painting.

I will provide all of the supplies and not only will you have a wonderful time but you’ll take home a 12″ x 16″ oil painting on canvas. Looking at your painting will always take you back to the many moments you spent out in the countryside, truly looking at the world around you.

Couples and groups (up to 8) are welcome. 

  • Outdoor  (“plein air”) painting lessons
  • Taught in three one-hour sessions in a variety of locations.
  • Supplies included (unless you prefer to bring your own)
