In this short introduction to his upcoming, 2-3 hour workshop webinar, Randy will walk you through this façade he discovered while in AVIGNON, FRANCE.


The building has a sidewalk café on the ground level where it opens into PLACE SAINT PIERRE. Randy did this plein air sketch in about an hour on site. Reflecting on his experience, he said 'I had a group with me painting and we were working in the shade but even so it was 80 degrees with about 80% humidity. The pigments in my palette turned to goo! When you are in the zone painting - you don’t notice the heat, humidity, or discomfort because it is so exciting to work directly in such a stimulating location!'
