About the Instructor:
Terry Clark has been painting watercolor landscapes for 20 years and is a member of In Your Eye Studio & Gallery in the Paseo Arts District. He’s exhibited and sold paintings in Oklahoma, Texas and Santa Fe. Samples of his work can be viewed on his website, www.tmclarkart.com
He believes transparent watercolor is ideal for capturing the dynamic spirit and light of Oklahoma and the Great Plains. Students will be introduced to the basic techniques and materials of watercolor, with plenty of practice. Classes will involve step-by-step lessons and demonstrations, as well as one-on-one instructions and always positive advice.
Clark has studied painting with Cletus Smith and Connie Seabourne of Oklahoma City and with nationally recognized artists Don Nice, Fran Francese, Ron Ranson, Don Andrews, Tom Lynch and G. Russell Case. His landscapes of Oklahoma, the Great Plains and the Southwest explore the influence of the brilliant light and colors from ever-changing skies. To him, the skies are a live source of light and life, fluid in an arid land.
Clark believes painting has stories to tell about our skies, brilliant colors and moods of the dramatic prairies, mountains, deserts and mesas. Clark is recognized as an excellent teacher and is a retired journalism professor at UCO in Edmond.
