BUS TRIP: Van Gogh: Up Close In Canada only in Ottawa, Van Gogh: Up Close will break new ground in exploring the artist's innovative use of the close-up view. Van Gogh experiments with depth of field and focus, zooms in on a verdant tuft of grass or a single iris, provides shifting perspectives of a farmer's field or the corner of a garden. This exhibition will feature approximately 50 paintings including works that have rarely been shown publicly, as well as a selection of Japanese prints.

Learn how he composes to create stillness in constant motion; how his colour celebrates both the physical and the timeless. Acrylic and/or oil (no solvent). Beginner to advanced. The cost of the bus trip is not included in the cost of this course. Students opting not to attend the gallery will be provided the opportunity of a studio day.
