Laguna Beach Plein Air Invitational: The Art of Looking at Art - Developing a Critical Eye for Art

Learn about the basic tools an artist uses to paint a landscape, city view, or other representational work, and how to develop a critical eye for what makes a painting great. Examples of great paintings by many of the artists participating in the 2011 Laguna Beach Plein Air Painting Invitational will be shown and discussed.
 
Dr. Jean Stern, executive director of the Irvine Museum, will lead this lecture.
