1 DAY PERSPECTIVE WORKSHOP

Perspective does not have to be a frightening process to overcome. Perspective is most important in the creation of any painting or drawing. I have been teaching my methods for many years and they are easy to understand for both beginner and advanced students. I will reference my book on this subject, Photographic Perspective Drawing Techniques. We will work with many examples taken from the text book. The techniques of understanding the fundamentals of perspective will be examined carefully in the course. Using perspective “lines” from “vanishing points” found on most photographs will be the basis of our studies. Tracing paper overlays with pencil line work will be closely examined in much detail.

1 DAY WORKSHOP

Can you finish a base-wash and your wine before it starts raining and make it to the station in time for the last train? Soon you will! Join our workshop to learn how to tackle wonderful problems like this and a good number of great techniques to make the best out of your watercolors when you travel. Capture the essence of a moving crowd, of the beautiful reflections on a wet cobbled street and of the perfect morning sky with quick pencils, flowing layers of color, and accentuating ink lines and splashes. The workshop will focus on quick sketching pencil techniques and how to make them disappear under great watercolor washes to capture the essence of the places you love to stay with you. Tips on how to use new technologies on your smart-phone and computer so they become part of your tool-kit will complement this fun workshop.

Wildlife Painting will start with a talk about papers and brands of pastel. The instructor will show you how to make your own paper using watercolor paper or mat board. Each student will be supplied with a wildlife photo and pastel paper with a drawing on it. Every student will be given the option to do an under painting in pastels or watercolor as they follow along with the instructor. Learn to distinguish highlights from mid-tones and where your shadows fall within a painting. Need help with color? Deb can help you recognize warm colors from cool colors and where they belong. Students are encouraged to bring a painting on the last day for a critique.

1 DAY WORKSHOP

The worth of value is that it creates contrast and the illusion of three dimensions in your work.
Create a vibrant painting by beginning with a value study. “Value” in visual art is the “how much” of light and dark. Learn how to compose light and shade in your paintings. You will learn how to see and apply color as value to develop your painting from a still life, dramatically lit, set up. Working “a la prima,” you will have a finished painting. Materials are oil paints with non-toxic mediums and acrylics.
