I am gearing up to teach a section of Landscape Painting in the spring. I believe the last time I taught landscape it was Fall session, so the palette will be very different. I love the spontaneity of teaching this class in plein air as much as possible---changing weather, changing light---it's all good. I am collecting some of favorite landscape paintings here as I begin to form the semester in my mind.
One of my favorites is John Twachtman---the simple, spare abstract ones. These are really a beautiful exercise in color, tone and
restraint.
