Join us for a relaxed and welcoming introduction to plein air painting led by artist and 2025 Plein Air Festival juror/judge Toni Williams—creating art outdoors, inspired by the beauty of the natural world. This workshop is perfect for beginners and will cover the basics of composition, color mixing, and capturing light and atmosphere on location.

Artists must bring their own paints, solvents, brushes, palette, and surfaces to paint on. Toni will be instructing in oil paint. Artists are encouraged to explore options for outdoor painting equipment such as a moveable easel or pochade box. Park tables will also be available.

Stay safe! Please wear a hat, neck covering, and sunscreen, and bring plenty of drinking water.
