This workshop is open to painters who are already comfortable
with their media, and have experience working outdoors. We will
start with field work: gathering possible candidates to be used
for larger paintings, followed by a few days of studio work
enlarging the studies selected. There will be a demonstration to
show my process from start to finish. Students should expect to
get a good start on the final painting but may not finish it
entirely. My goal is to get the student to see the value in
creating accurate field work that can be used as a reference in
the studio, to work up a concept from the field into a strong
studio painting that has similarities to, but is not a copy of,
the field work. We will use photography where necessary and
discuss the benefits and disadvantages of using them together.
Field and studio work. Critique, materials discussion and group
conversation. www.marchansonart.com
