Northwest pioneers in the early nineteenth-century used the Oregon
Trail, a historic east-west wagon route that was the oldest of the
northern commercial trails. In this session, we will capture images
from the Oregon Trail and envision what life was like for the pioneers
who used it. We will paint and draw the wagons, the mountain trails
and the natural landscape. We will then cover the first settlements: the
pioneer’s log houses, gardens, clothes and everyday tools.

We will combine techniques of space composition light and shadow,
one-point perspective, two-point perspective and creating depth and
3D. We will use pencils, charcoals, soft pastels, oil pastels, watercolor,
acrylic, clay, and foil.
