Upcoming Lecture at The Currier Museum

I am so honored to be giving a lecture on my process as a landscape painter and how it relates to the Hudson River School, Nov. 3rd between 7 and 7:30pm at The Currier Museum , in Manchester N.H.

The lecture also aligns  with a remarkable show the museum is doing on 19th century white mountain art called “Mount Washington: The Crown of New England”.

This 19th century John Kensett painting of Mount Washington will be at the show. 

In my lecture I plan to discuss the Hudson River School artist’s approach of working from drawings and plein-air sketches to make their larger studio paintings. And more generally how these artists saw and studied nature.

 

Please join me Nov. 3rd! Should be a wonderful evening.
