About the Course

Painting Southwest Landscapes

🎨 About the Course Explore the beauty, colors and distinctive character of the American Southwest through painting! Led by instructor Erin Gillespie, students discover the work of a different Southwest artist each week, exploring their styles, techniques and interpretations of the region's landscapes.

💡 What You'll Learn & Experience Each week Erin introduces a different Southwest artist and their approach to capturing the region's natural beauty. You'll experiment with techniques, styles, color palettes and landscape approaches, with demonstrations and personalized feedback in a relaxed, supportive environment.

🏺 What You'll Make & Create Each week you'll create your own original painting inspired by that week's artist, from dramatic desert scenery and colorful rock formations to beautiful skies and rugged mountain landscapes. Reference photographs are provided.
