Paint the coastal atmosphere, palm trees, sailboats, and jet skis in peaceful Mission Bay. Enjoy a morning working alongside other painters.
Painting outdoors gives the artist the opportunity to experiment with light, color, and atmosphere. Work with San Diego landscape painter Kevin Inman to learn how to paint spontaneously, appreciate nature, and enjoy the moment. Topics include color mixing, design, and how to let go of your inner critic.
MATERIALS: Recommended oil or acrylic colors: I like Gamblin and Rembrandt paints.

Basic palette: Cadmium Yellow Medium (or Hue), Cadmium Yellow Deep (or Hue), Cadmium Red Medium (or Hue), Alizarin Crimson Permanent, Ultramarine Blue, Cerulean Blue Hue, Titanium White, Burnt Umber, or preferred alternatives.
Recommended but optional palette: Ivory Black, Burnt Sienna, Yellow Ochre.
