Field of Vision 2026 Inspiration

We love when guests dress for the occasion. Beyond the Canvas is our invitation to bring a little of the studio outside. We’ve gathered inspiration to help you begin. Come as your favorite painting. Come as the light on water at golden hour. Come as whatever moves you. En plein air, but make it fashion.

MATERIAL STUDY

Take inspiration from the materials themselves. Pigment, paint, canvas, clay, dye. Think about color and texture, and let the process show.

Re-Frame

Channel an artist or a favorite work of art. Go all in, or take cues from their palette, mark-making, subject matter, or personality.

Field Notes

Take cues from the flora and fauna that shape Ox-Bow’s landscape. Water, trees, and wildlife offer forms, patterns, and movement to work from.
