We all did tomatoes today and here they are:
Mine is below on the far right, with the bright green background.
This was one I forgot to put in from yesterday..... I thought the feather would be the hard part, but it was the Baby Roma tomato!
We did value studies today - nothing new there... EXCEPT Carol was teaching us about the dominant/medium, squinch aspect. Every painting (successful painting), is divided into 3 areas, light, medium and dark areas, with one of them being dominant (like half), one medium (like 2/3 of the other half) and a squinch (the last, smallest little bit). OK, squinch might not be the right word, but it's a work like that. So we had to do 3 value studies, trying to use one or all of those designs. OH, and the little numbers on the top left were the number of minutes we had to do them - start to finish - whew!
Hi Kelley,
ReplyDeletesounds like a good workshop, love the examples. Nothing like a good value study to get you centered. I love the lemon painting you did before you left, great yellow and purple combos.
Have fun, I am very jealous.
This is SO cool! It must be exciting to be in an instructional environment with Carol and in Santa Fe no less! As usual, I love your drawing...(love the feather!)
ReplyDeleteWow, this looks like sooooooo much fun! I need to get out the paints!!!

The feather is superb. The value studies are, well, valuable!
