“A Day at the Beach” the Impressionist Style of Julie Wende

“A Day at the Beach” the Impressionist Style of Julie Wende Saturday, August 8th - Sunday, August 9th, 2026 - 10:30AM-4PM (with a lunch break) 204 S Austin St Rockport, TX $225 for Members, $280 for Non-Members Class Description: Bring your photos of family or utilize some of the 8x10” images I provide and let’s bring life and color to our beach paintings! Emphasis will be on fundamentals of oil painting including design and composition basics, color mixing, and value studies. I will demo side by side, two value studies using the same photo, one with warm light/cool shadows, then cool light/warm shadows. Figure rendering will incorporate what I call (okay I stole this from Peggy Kroll Roberts, a genius in contemporary figure painting) vicinity marks and then placing more than one figure using one point perspective.
