Back by popular demand! In conjunction with the exhibition Painting at the End of the Ice Age, artist David Rosenthal will teach exercises designed to illuminate the essential concepts and elements of landscape painting to create dynamic space, light, and colors. This class will explore the theory and fundamentals of landscape painting through the media of quick-drying watercolors and short drawing exercises. Whether interested in realism, representational, or abstract painting, these foundational concepts will prove valuable to participants at all ability levels.
Registration includes use of all tools and materials (paint, brushes, paper, etc.). Space is limited, and registration is required. The fee is $25. Ages 16+ (mature 14+ students welcome with parent or guardian). Questions can be sent to clindquist@anchoragemuseum.org.
About the Artist
David Rosenthal is a Cordova-based artist whose work documents retreating glacial ice and dramatic post-glacial landscapes observed during his 45-year painting career, a period coinciding with the final years of our current geologic Ice Age. Works are paired with text-based reflections from the artist and geologists, oceanographers, biologists, and self-taught naturalists.
