ACTA 59- Why Study Edgar Degas?

Oct 4, 2019

This unusual Impressionist didn't enjoy plein-air painting (painting outside) or the airy natural light. Instead, he sketched and then returned to his studio to paint. He's most famous for his paintings of ballet dancers, but he also painted everyday people in the city and action scenes from polo games! In fact, he was incredibly skilled at painting people in the midst of their activity, often from unique angles.

Join us as we chat about this... irritable artist- his life and his art.
