Foundations for Landscape: September 7 – 9, 2012
This class is to prepare the student to work and make decisions on location. Prior planning in the studio can ground students before they attempt to take on plein-air work. Using a painted monochromatic sketch, or under-painting, learn how to build a foundation in the field. Contact me for materials list and to enroll. Friday – Sunday, 9am – 4pm.

Student oil sketch on panel in preparation for enlarging work to a much bigger canvas. Using a much smaller color sketch (rather than a photo) made on location, the resulting larger painting takes on a more authentic feel.
Solving problems in proportion, makes transition simpler. Oil wash in at this point, under-painting provides the structure and reduces problems when moving to color.
