Description
Power Painting and Dynamic Color
All Levels
Medium: Oil and Acrylics
Instructor: Martha Wakefield
In this multi-level workshop we will use the landscape as a point of departure and explore the possibilities of personal expression. Through close observation, an in-depth study of form and structure your skills will be enhanced, leading to unity and enlivened content. By traveling beyond “what is seen” we will instead realize the landscape’s poetry rendering it into an authentic and visual response. We will examine the design elements (i.e.: color, shape, line etc.) and continue to refine by investigating the design principles (i.e.: rhythm, unity, balance, repetition, harmony, dominance, variation, etc.). The study of master works, demos and emphasis on exercises will provide a crucial step in your artistic growth requiring you “to push outside your comfort zone”, whether that be a favorite color palette and tools, familiar surfaces, or habitual ways of working. A few hours will be spent outdoors sketching the landscape as material for studio paintings. One-on-one critiques/feedback will be ongoing and group critique will take place mid-week and on the final day.
