Rich Gallego, Composing a Landscape Painting

This Themed Thursday features Rich Gallego, a renowned local artist and plein air instructor. Rich will show us his work while discussing topics such as composition, drawing and other painting fundamentals, and will explain how he decides what to paint in the landscape. He will also talk about what to pack for plein air painting, his basic palette, and using gouache for sketchbook studies and tell us about some of his favorite painting spots. Rich Gallego's longtime love of nature's wild places have taken him far afield from Arizona's Canyon de Chelly to the beaches of Hawaii. From the rivers, gorges, and adobes of northern New Mexico to the glaciers of Alaska and so many places in between, all in search of the scenes he loves to paint. Referring to his obsession with painting as "my magnificent affliction," he is constantly searching for new ways to reveal the natural world to others through paint. Rich teaches weekly plein air workshops in southern California, has taught bi-annual plein air painting workshops for Cloudcroft Art Workshops in Cloudcroft, New Mexico, and for eight years, taught weeklong workshops for the Taos Art School in New Mexico. He is a member of the Laguna Plein Air Painters' Association and was juried into their "Best of Plein Air" show in 2015 and 2016. He has been featured in several articles by Plein Air Magazine's website, "Outdoor Painter" and appeared as a featured artist in "American Art Collector" magazine. Rich has been represented by several galleries in Laguna Beach, CA, Monrovia, CA, and Cheyenne, WY., San Marino, CA, and Claremont, CA. He has been a faculty member for the annual Plein Air Convention and Expo in Santa Fe, NM twice and will once again be on the faculty for PACE23 in Denver. .
