The Art Class

I painted this scene at the Art Students league of New York. It is from the back of studio seven looking north toward the skylights. Holding forth with the brush and demonstrating the Art of Portraiture is my own teacher, Frank Mason.

Frank Mason at the Canoe Access 1992

I've finally started to edit some of this content. From 1992, this video documents the Frank Mason landscape class, held in Stowe, Vermont during the month of June  from the 1960's through June of 2007. This episode takes place at the canoe access, a marshy area extending off of the Waterbury reservoir which was an amazingly picturesque place to paint.

Frank Mason on Velasquez

Classic scenes of the maestro himself expounding on Velasquez and seventeenth century Spanish painting. It should be easy to recognize, for those who are fortunate to have been there, the friendly confines of Harry Burnham's barn, where on any given Saturday in June, the landscape class assembled for the weekly critique.
