Calling teen artists! Join us for a en plein air or plein-air painting (the act of painting outdoors) with artist Morgan Jones. Jones will provide art instruction as well as gouache material kits for participants to engage in art making. Participants will be welcomed, guided through materials and prompts, and then be able to use supplies inside, or outside, to create a painting. Teen students will leave with a Plein Air Gouache Kit. This workshop will be held at the Bath House Cultural Center during the Family Arts Bash on April 12, 2025 from 1:30-3:00pm.
Instructor Bio:
A passionate artist and experienced educator, Morgan Jones seeks to explore how art can serve as a medium to move us both individually and communally. Her time teaching in public schools, juvenile detention, and community centers has deepened her belief that art is a fundamental means of knowing, connecting, and transforming. In addition to Fine Arts, Morgan studied Art Education at Texas State University as well as Criminal and Social Justice at the College of the Rockies, Canada. Morgan’s professional painting practice focuses on plein air landscape assemblages and multiple exposure oil paintings that call into question ideas of impermanence, memory and conservation. Creating her art from her mobile travel trailer studio, she explores the land through her nomadic living style.
