DESCRIPTION OF WORKSHOP:
Learning to Take Control in Order to Let Go
Careful planning and preparation are integral components of my painting process. These preliminary steps help with the confidence needed to paint loose & juicy. I would love to share with you what works for me:
– Establishing a focal point and a visual “path” for your painting design
– Working out a full value range
– Choosing your palette
– Blocking the “whites,” visualizing and planning the first wash
– Starting with bold, brave color
– Working from large shapes to small (“sneaking up” on your subject matter)
– How & when to critique your own work
– Challenging our definition of “finished”
I will supply a reference photo if you want to paint with me but I encourage you to choose your own if you would like. I will be doing a figurative landscape.
