The new high-definition series Passport & Palette® represents the next generation of art education on television. The 13-part series began airing on public television stations nationwide in May 2009 (check with your local public television stations for scheduled broadcasts).  

Passport & Palette® invites viewers to see the world through the eyes of acclaimed master artists, including en plein air painter Kevin Macpherson, landscape and still life artist, Joe Anna Arnett, watercolor specialist, James Asher and outdoor painter, Kenn Backhaus.

Unlike other painting programs, Passport & Palette® presents viewers with timeless principles of art using beautiful subjects and destinations to illustrate these ideas. Even those who do not paint will appreciate this classic and artistic way of seeing the world. 

Cameras follow the artists as they travel to picturesque locations in France, Switzerland, Guatemala, Italy, Canada and the United States, in the series' first season and select their painting subjects and create new works of art - landscapes, still lifes and portraits. Episodes include tips and insights about the choice of materials, composition, and methods of capturing light, motion and mood. Along the way, the artists discuss their unique approaches to their work, as well as their mental process, influences and style.
