    Plein Air nocturnes, steal the show.

    They impart drama and a surprising perspective on the world. Did you know that there is a completely different palette to a nocturne? That all you were taught about shadows goes out the window, as light sources come from many directions? That you don’t use black and that a nocturne is full of jewel toned colors?

    You’ll learn the secrets of a successful nocturne in this one evening, studio/plein air workshop. We’ll start in the studio at 5pm with a discussion and demo of the art of the nocturne and then head outside to paint along 6th Street, by 7pm

    Students can bring their own supplies. You can use oil, acrylic or watercolor, but i will only be demonstrating in oil.

    Bring a prepared canvas or panel. See materials list for more details.

    The following COVID-19 related policies are in place for classes that begin after April 1, 2022:

    As of April 1 and in accordance with the lifting of the mask recommendation by the Michigan Department of Health and Human Services, masks are not required for CTAC classes that begin after April 1*. However, should COVID-19 pandemic conditions change, CTAC will continue to follow local/state health department guidelines on masking, and will update class registrants via email and our website accordingly in the event of a change in requirements.

    *Some classes may still require masking, and that will be noted clearly in the class description.

    Class Cancellations (Weather)

    Crooked Tree Arts Center reserves the right to cancel any class that does not meet its minimum student enrollment prior to the first class session.
