ABOUT THE WORKSHOP:
This workshop is for all skill levels from beginner to advanced. Derek will cover topics such as the power of warms and cools, complementaries, harmony, edges, shape-quality, variety, simplifying, loosening brushwork, elements of design, elements of light and shadow, the power of suggestion and seeing in terms of mass and shape relationships. There will be a strong emphasis on making your paintings more three-dimensional. Students will use oils (other mediums are welcome) to paint from photos. They will have a choice of dozens of photographs consisting of boats, cityscapes, figures, birds, hanging fruit and fish. Students will also have the option to paint from their own photos if they choose. The first half of the day Derek will paint from a photo to demonstrate his process from start to finish. The second half of the day the students will paint with Derek's guidance. Students are also welcome to bring a painting previously painted for Derek to critique.
