The Art of Painting Flowers Workshop with Pam Newell
June 28-29, 2019
Capture the gesture and essence of flowers in a still life. With this beautiful, but fleeting subject, discover how light creates form, and more!
Bring: your favorite still life objects and a vase, container, pitcher, draping cloths, fruit, fresh flowers and foliage (cut or in pots)- whatever inspires you to paint! You will learn how to set up and light your objects to create a mood to make an exceptional painting. We will discuss the principals of fine art as inspired by the Masters; how to begin a painting, focal point, values, transparent vs. opaque color, hard and soft edges, brushwork, palette knife and surface texture.
There will be an instructor demo and lots of individual attention. Lights, stands, backdrop stations and some props and flowers are provided. Materials list are found on my website: www.pnewellart.com. This workshop is open to all skill levels and styles; some drawing or painting experience is recommended. The main emphasis is on oil painting; however, all media are welcome. Students provide all workshop materials. PLEASE BRING A PORTABLE OR TABLETOP EASEL.
