Sketching implies spontaneity and speed, yet thought and intention. The aim of the “sketch” is to be a resource for future studio paintings. A “sketch” refers to a work originating from the brief explosive moment of an intensely personal response to a scene, it is fresh and broadly painted. The goal is for you to learn how to omit the superfluous and grasp the essentials, to see the landscape less literally and more as an exciting arangement of shapes and colors. Emphasis will be on learning to organize light and dark patterns.

Painters will learn to start a painting with “the idea” and then how to trust in that personal vision. You will use 5 helpful directives to realize your intention and gain the viewer’s attention. This art workshop will begin with an introduction to supplies and set-ups, followed by a brief overview of basic design principles. Mimi will demonstrate in the field and finally, it will be your turn to fling paint while she devotes lots of personal attention to you. Workshops are planned as 3-day classes and are currently being scheduled. Please get on the mailing list to be notified as to new dates and locations. |
