Demonstration Painting
















oil on stretched canvas 16x20

In my afternoon class, I did about an hour demo today in which we discussed using a photo and then really exaggerating the color to add some emotion, how to simplify the design, and still use the reference photos we took to use as a guide. I took this photo in Vermont this summer and will finish up the demo painting and post it again.

  1. Hey Honey!
    Thank you-Thank you!
    It is 7:45 on a Sunday Morning. I should be sound to sleep. But NOOOO! Too busy thinking.
    I went to a late afternoon,outdoor wedding, yesterday.
    I promised the bride I would paint the ceremonial gazebo.
    Just looking at your demo, plus remembering what you have taught me in class= = = I know what to do!!!
    Now I can sleep. In a few hours I will go over my notes I have taken in your workshops. You now have your own notebook.
    hogs and kisses, Dottie
