Plein Air Oil Painting with Juliana Crownover – G26070105
Come paint on location in the glorious landscapes of Ghost Ranch! Through demonstration and individual instruction, you’ll be guided through a process designed to help you gain confidence and joy in painting both outdoors and in the studio.
Together we’ll capture the dramatic clouds, skies, sunsets, and ever-changing light of Ghost Ranch through thoughtful attention to value, color, and composition. Each class is structured with enough direction to ensure success and enough freedom to allow for creative expression.
Daily field trips will take us to inspiring on-location sites to paint directly from life. You’ll learn a simplified approach to plein air painting using a limited palette and intentional color studies to build confidence in color mixing and observation.
Please be prepared to paint outside.
Participants will bring their own materials

She works at Baylor Hospital in Dallas and Fort Worth, TX as Artist in Residence. She describes her art this way “I paint to capture moments and to share my joy.” In my classes I strive to create a balance that allows enough freedom so that students can create their own art, and enough direction to ensure success. Aside from the end-goal of finished art, I think the process should be enjoyed, and I work hard to create an environment that allows for that.” You may run into her on the hiking trail where you may find her with her husband and/or one of her 4 children.
