Color Theory Workshop results - abstract landscapes

On Monday we studied the subtle effects of justaposing certain colors together.  We did this by quickly painting (with our fingers) these multiple abstract landscapes.

Monday workshop, April 3, 2017 - Color Theory and applications

Color theory or color selection is an important process that can be learned.  Understanding how colors work together will simplify your decisions, give you confidence in your choices and make you a happier artist.

In this workshop we will be painting a number of small landscape paintings with different color combos so that you will begin to understand how colors work.

See you there!!

"Family Paint Over" results of todays class

"Family Painter", Monday Feb. 6, 2017

This week we will be painting on photocopies of our family members.  I call it "The Family Paintover".  

As always, I bring everything incuding my family photos.   However, you have the option of sending to me photos of your family via email or FB and I will print them out in black and white and bring them to class Monday morning. 

Our objection is to take the photocopy and create a painting.

Here is simple photo of my mom walking - its a bad photo because she is way over to the side and it's in bad quality.  But no matter -  this particular painting I created using this very technique; it was juried into shows and won awards!! 

Anyone can do this.

See you there.

P.S.  If you scroll down a few posts you will see the award I won for this painting.
