Caleb Stone will do a demonstration in oil of a scene in Gloucester, MA of a man bailing out his dory.

Using a limited pallet of 9 colors and white, 3 yellows, 3 reds, and 3 blues, he will explain how to mix each color tone to create shadow and atmosphere. He will show how to compose the scene to capture the best placement of the shapes to get the best impact.

*The Cheshire Art League will conduct a quick meeting at 6:45pm before the demo begins at 7pm.
