Steven Grieco will share his approach to plein air painting – Grieco uses a 4 step method which includes the phases of 1) DESIGN (line drawing on toned canvas), 2) VALUE (4 values ref points on canvas), 3) BLOCK IN (just a few colors with strokes in plane of subject) and 4) ARTICULATE (highlights, lines etc)

Steven Grieco is a plein air painter who uses bold simple strokes in oil.  While living in Philadelphia and then Miami, Grieco dabbled in different painting styles.  It was not until Grieco moved to Newport Beach in 2016, and became aware of the plein air painting culture associated with Southern California, that he discovered his love for painting outdoors.  Painting the local scenery is now an itch he can’t ignore.  In addition to painting, Grieco is a practicing neuroscientist at University of California, Irvine, and studies the visual cortex.
