Tryon artist Richard Christian Nelson will teach his third annual “Autumn Landscape Painting Workshop” Oct. 24 – 28. The class will spend five days from 9 a.m. – 4 p.m. at many different locations painting the changing colors at their peak.
Each artist will need a field kit and a number of small canvases or panels to do two to three paintings per day. Beginners are welcome, and those who want to work in different media are welcome too, although the focus will be on oils.
The Nelsons moved to Tryon in 2004. They opened a gallery in Tryon, Skyuka Fine Art, in December 2010. Nelson does a good number of portraits in oil and charcoal each year and said he treasures the time he gets to change gears and paint outdoors, especially with other artists.
