Program Description
Join artist and art instructor Andrew Cheddie Sookrah for a one-day-only en plein air painting workshop focused on the winter landscape. Bundle up for a day-long immersion into the interconnections between colour, form, structure, depth and texture found in the Ontario winter landscape.
Leveraging the versatility of acrylics and working on the beautiful grounds of the McMichael, students may begin new work or continue an existing piece while learning how to interpret the winter landscape in their own voice. Materials not included, outdoor seats provide. Please dress appropriately for the outdoors.

He clearly explains and demonstrates his process, while also giving ample individual attention to each student in the class. Andrew always strikes the right balance between making class challenging and making it fun.” – Peter Fairweather
