In Celebration of Nature

Welcome to In Celebration of Nature, a self-paced online plein air and studio painting workshop. 

Meet Rusty Jones

Rusty Jones is a full time artist, studio painter, plein air painting enthusiast and painting instructor. He brings over twenty years workshop teaching experience to his online course. 

Of painting outdoors Rusty says "I don't find the landscape, it finds me". And once his easel is set up and the paint begins to flow Rusty's singular focus is capturing the landscape that inspires him.

Why take an online workshop?

Affordable-No travel costs and no lodging costs
Convenient-Study on your schedule when its convenient for you 24/7
Support-Join and participate in a community of artists with similar interests, struggles and successes in a private Facebook community

How much does it cost?

There are two payment plans available. You can enroll for $30 per month or pay a full year for $300. At the end of year you will need to renew your membership to continue the course.

There are advantages to both methods. With the $30 per month enrollment, if you decide the course is not what you need, you can quit at any time with little investment. Or you can enroll for a full year at the $300 rate and receive two month free.

At the top of the page there are two buttons, one for the $30 per month and one for the full year at $300. Choose the one that works best for you.

What you get

1. Three video lessons per month delivered the first three Mondays each month

2. Most video lessons will tackle a particular painting challenge including seeing color, mixing and applying paint, finding the star in the landscape, values, edges, drawing, perspective, painting depth, observation, painting rocks, water, trees, old barns and clouds or anything else we decide we want to paint. Sometimes we will paint a scene just to paint with no particular lesson in mind.

3. Plein air and studio lessons. When the weather permits we will be outside painting

4. Library of reference photos to paint from at your leisure or as part of a video lesson

5. PRIVATE FACEBOOK COMMUNITY: This is where we meet to share our paintings, our successes and, yes, those paintings we are struggling with.

6. Full time mentorship. I am committed to being available to answer any questions or give guidance privately through email
