“The direct, immediate experience is spellbinding to me. Painting from life demands my presence - to be in the moment.”
- Brent J. Lynch
Upcoming Workshop.
‘Figure In The Landscape’
Zoom Workshop - Nov. 21-23-2025.
( 10 am-12 pm break 1 pm-4 pm PST )
Join a Brent Lynch workshop over the internet from the comfort of your studio or home. With a focus on the figure in composition, this course explores the visual possibilities. The animate figure and the relationship with it’s surroundings is a powerful artistic tradition. The rendering of the human form is a landscape in itself to study and pursue. There are many devices, techniques and effects to achieve a seamless and natural integration of the human figure into your visual story. Brent offers techniques, critiques, discussions, and live demos along with the benefit of participants continuing access to demo videos, slide show and pdf notes online. Brent looks forward to meeting and working with you.
Plein Air Collection.
In the ‘en plein air’ tradition Lynch’s work begins with sketches and oil studies in the field. His trade-mark liberal paint application, dramatic brushstrokes and powerful compositions are driven by direct observation of the world around him. “The discipline demands my full attention and presence - it keeps me grounded. There’s nothing like the real thing.”
