Sound Decisions Make Great Paintings
Nature is impossibly complex and we are limited in our ability to accurately paint it, let alone comprehend it! This underscores the impossible task that artists have. In my workshop we will discuss a basic framework that will allow us to distill the intricacies of the landscape into manageable decisions that we can make on the canvas. When we train ourselves to be deliberate in every single brushstroke, our paintings take one a quality competency that becomes apparent final product. This workshop is particularly useful for artists with a bit of experience under their belt, but all skill levels will benefit from this one-day class.
