Outlaw PartnersFear not: What to do in November
By Derek Lennon EBS Contributor
Are you ready for November in Big Sky? The peaks are starting to turn white and the snow line is dropping quickly. Diehard skiers are earning their turns in the backcountry, as leaves are falling from trees in the Meadow and Canyon. It’s getting chillier every single day. November means that ski season is almost here.
November is far from the busiest month of the year. Now is prime time to organize employment for the winter season, find housing, and enjoy the laidback Big Sky attitude that we all enjoy. Be sure to get out and enjoy everything that’s happening in Big Sky in November. Mark your calendars now so that you know what’s going on.

We all are familiar with using a limited palette, but do you use one? Do you know how to use a limited palette to create different color combinations? Are you tired of carrying around 15-20 different tubes when you paint plein air? Have you ever wanted to create a certain “mood” in a painting but failed? Do you create a lot of mud? Do you struggle to achieve color harmony? All these problems are addressed in John’s workbook in clear and concise language!
Based on the bestselling “Limited Palatte, Unlimited Color” workbook written by John Pototschnik, the workshop is run by Maggie Shane and Annie McCoy, accomplished landscape (acrylic) and plein air (oil) artists,exhibitors at the Big Sky Artists’ Studio & Gallery and members of the Big Sky Artists Collective.
Each student will receive a copy of “Limited Palette, Unlimited Color” to keep and take home to continue your limited palette journey. We will show you how to use the color wheel and mix your own clean mixtures to successfully create a mood for your paintings.
Each day, we will create a different limited palette color chart and paint a version of a simple landscape using John’s directives. You will then be able to go home and paint more schemes using the book for guidance.
Workshop is open to painters (oil or acrylic) of any level although students must have some basic knowledge of the medium he or she uses. Students will be provided the book ($92 value), color wheel, value scale and canvas papers to complete the daily exercises.
