WORKSHOP DESCRIPTION:
Just copying can be boring! Join Frankie in this exciting weekend of
challenging exercises that will ignite your creative thinking. Too
many details can break down a solid composition. Learn how to turn
an average photo into a more exciting painting! Learn how to
simplify your reference and how to enhance it at the same time.
Combine photos to make stronger compositions, exaggerate the use of
color, explore the mystery of edges and create more energetic brush
work. Realize what it takes to catch the attention of the viewer.
These various painting projects will help you to take more risks. |
