Capture the solacing vistas of Ghost Ranch and its rich landscape and enchanting built environment through sketching and digital lens. Incorporate your inspired visual depictions into a finished acrylic painted canvas wall hanging and/or table runner art piece. Participants will explore the vast property expanse by short walking excursions documenting the natural flora and fauna, and architectural study of Ghost Ranch’s built environment. Whether you are a landscape, architectural, or design enthusiast, one can expand and enhance their visual acuity as we document our experiences to create the art peice in an indoor studio space. Designated “open studio” time will be available for those who would like to work on their canvases after regular workshop sessions.

The workshop instructor will share his art, design, and architectural background as well as artwork examples as inspiration during the Ghost Ranch experience. We will explore various canvas size and shape formatting in addition to edge hemming of the art piece, its protection and techniques for display.
