Save the date- New PBS art series on “Landscapes through Time”
6 05 2008While trolling through the Slow Travel forums for my upcoming trip to France, I stumbled across this tip on a new upcoming PBS art series on landscape painting hosted by artist David Dunlop. Here’s an excerpt from the PBS website:
“LANDSCAPES THROUGH TIME WITH DAVID DUNLOP — a lively and entertaining new 13-part PBS series shot in HD — offers viewers the opportunity to travel with noted painter and lecturer David Dunlop to magical, historic locations in the United States and France as he follows the lives and artistic paths of celebrated artists such as Turner and Monet. Dunlop journeys to the locations these artists visited and learns how they transformed their vision into a familiar painting. “
PBS always does a wonderful job with its art series, so I hope this one broadcasts in my area. It’s set to air in June, which will be just on the heels of having returned from my own France landscape painting trip. You can read all about the program here, but you’ll probably have to just check back in at viewing schedule as they only list schedules 13 days out.

I promise to watch. 13 episodes. They will probably cover it in almost as much detail as you and the easels. I wonder why I can’t go off and paint in France. I like the bread just fine, I don’t care what they call it. Check out my new painting. Its all about you.
Excellent. Expect a pop quiz on the program. As for France, no pain no gain. And as for your new painting…I love it! And very clever to lure me over by baiting the ego. Very clever.
