Students will explore the methods and theories of oil painting on location. Everything from two-point perspective to palette care will be discussed during this intense and exciting five day workshop. Students will create a series of small oil paintings in the tradition and style of the group of seven on wood panels in a vigorous wet on wet painting technique. Come on outside and have some fun! Born in Brockville, Ontario in 1968, John Climenhage has been painting, teaching and exhibiting throughout Canada and the U.S. since 1989. He apprenticed in Victoria with acclaimed oil painter Jim Gordaneer from 1994-1999. He has a broad knowledge of art history which he references in both his landscapes and abstract works. His paintings incorporate theories of quantum physics and existential philosophies in a two dimensional field upon which the painting occurs as an event.
