May 17-May 31 Morning

Set within the historic grounds and surrounding countryside of Château de Mailly, Color Fields will explore how landscape can serve as a point of departure for abstraction. The Yonne River valley features winding waterways, limestone cliffs, and rolling fields. Participants will investigate how color, light, atmosphere, rhythm, and memory can become the foundation for paintings that move beyond direct observation, transforming and distilling the experience of place. Exploring the material and expressive qualities of paint, artists will experiment with color, composition, gesture, and spatial relationships while cultivating a personal abstract visual language. Based in studio work, outdoor painting, discussions and individual critiques, the workshop will also include excursions to Paris and nearby historic sites and culminate in an exhibition on site.
