"The Art of Seeing"-Online- Study with a Master! For the most part... artists see differently. I know in my own work and in teaching for over 60 years when I or my students began to learn to see less "literally" and more "abstract" they usually start doing more interesting and compelling paintings...they see more possibilities for paintings and don't have to be so "subject" driven. The general idea is not to see "literally a mountain, clouds, trees, rocks, etc as they are, but to see things more as "interesting arrangements of shapes, colors and edges". I will be using good examples and explanations of my own work and other great artists and how we can facilitate this kind of thinking and seeing and to apply it to your own work. You will learn how and when to make things larger or smaller, brighter or duller, darker and lighter and sharper or softer..all to make your painting more interesting and compelling! I will do a few demos and we will have some very helpful critiques. There are still a couple of spots left in this workshop. It starts on Wednesday, January 6th and goes for 3 hours for 4 consecutive weeks from 10 am to 1pm. Cost is: $300. You can access recordings of the classes for up to 30 days after the workshop has ended. We will work from photos..yours or mine...as you will have access to download some great photo reference that I offer from all over the world..landscapes and figures! I have been teaching for over 60 years and painting for over 70 years and I feel that I have a lot to offer and hope that you might consider joining us!
