The Landscape painters that we admire most today, from Romantics like Turner to Post-Impressionists Cezanne and Van Gogh emerged from an industrial age to rediscover the beauty of nature. Walk in their footsteps as you paint outdoors "en plein air" and experiment with Monet's actual palettes and color theories. Develop your own individual style while you work with a supportive professional group.
