Jersey Shore Arts Center

Plein air Pastel Painting at the Jersey Shore

Mondays,  Apr 13 -  May 18, 10:00 AM - 12:30 PM

Instructor Gina Torello has designed this Plein Air Pastel Painting Class in the heart of our iconic downtown Asbury Park and Ocean Grove New Jersey. Perspective lessons will take place out on the streets of our local quaint towns. She will demonstrate each session as everyone follows along painting the same subject matter as she instructs from inception to completion. Each painting may take two weeks from start to finish. Lessons will be on the Carousel in Asbury Park, the Tent City in Ocean Grove and the Convention Hall all while painting alongside with a master PleinAir artist. This is a one of a kind experience all local artist do not want to pass up. The first 12 Artists will be supplied with a New Wave Pochade Easel to use during your exclusive lessons down in these quaint seashore towns and a comfortable PleinAir chair to use as you paint. This pleasurable and rewarding class will cover compositional structure, color theory, application of materials and most of all the process of capturing the LIGHT in the open air like the Impressionists. All levels of pastel painting artists are welcomed. I will email everyone prior to our first class via JSAC email to inform you on our first location.
