Dear Subscribers,
A few places have become available for a 4 day workshop, Painting the Floral Portrait from Life, with Carmine and Crimson Studios, in Guildford, UK.
This four-day workshop offers a hands-on experience in alla prima/direct oil painting, focusing on floral subjects. Through a systematic approach, you will learn how to translate your observations into authentic paintings that capture form and light nuances. Working directly from life, you'll gain practical tools to enhance your skills.
Each day, Alex will commence with a presentation on his painting philosophy, followed by hands-on demonstrations. Students will then apply these techniques under Alex’s guidance, receiving personalised feedback based on their skill level.
Practical subjects covered include honing observation skills, simplification, composition, drawing, various modes of seeing, value relationships, form and light, colour aspects, edges, and abstraction.
