Gordon Haas invites you to join him for his Plein Air Art Workshop in Positano, Italy 3-10 October, 2009. All skill levels are welcome, from advanced painters to novice artists working in all mediums who want to explore the exhilarating method of working plein air. Non-painting companions are welcome as well! Plein-air classes, taught by Mr. Haas, will explore his seasoned techniques of layering complimentary colors. He uses color theories that automatically give you the warm and cool palette, and determines your contrast at the same time. There will be ample time for sight seeing, simply relaxing at the beach or dining alfresco at one of the many charming cafes. Details and the full itinerary are on the website. So, if you’ve ever dreamt of a painting trip to Italy, here is your chance to turn that dream into a reality. A 1984 graduate of the Rhode Island School of Design with his BFA, Mr. Haas has successfully operated Haas Gallery in Lambertville, NJ, his working studio and gallery, for the past 15 years.
