Join instructor Robert Wortmann 1-Day workshop all about Tonalism.
Tonalism is a uniquely American art form that flourished between 1880 and 1920. Tonalist art was primarily landscape and focused on the feeling, mood or emotion of the scene rather than producing a realistic representation of the subject. Often painting scenes of very early morning, very late in the evening, or foggy, rainy days, the tonalists used subtle colors that were restful and harmonious to the eye and employed soft and lost edges to create an atmospheric perspective and a poetic feeling. Famous tonalist painters included James McNeill Whistler, George Innes, Albert Pinkham Ryder and John Henry Twachtman.
In this workshop we will review the characteristics of tonalism, and example works by famous painters. Following a demonstration, students will work on their own paintings with one-on-one consultation from the instructor. The workshop will conclude with a group critique of everyone's work.
The instructor will demonstrate using soft pastels, but students are welcome to use the medium of their choice.
