3-Day Color Boot Camp

Description - We will start out the first day doing still life study out of doors which will prepare us to tackle the landscape. Second day we will be on location painting the landscape. I will be teaching the structure of the landscape—what is important to include as well as what to leave out. On the last day we will do color studies of the figure (in the Hensche/Hawthorne “mudhead” tradition). We will concentrate on the development of strong starts, and focus on expressing the big masses, light key and aerial perspective with color. I will be doing demos throughout the workshop. You will do a color study before lunch, followed by one or two color studies in the afternoon. You are encouraged to either bring original artwork or photos and talk to me about your vision as an artist. I look forward to working with each of you!
