ABOUT THE WORKSHOP:
This 4-day studio workshop will focus on painting realistic water with deep reflections. Learn Kami’s approach to creating beautiful water and the roll light plays in the scene, as she shares her techniques used in painting water by employing shapes of color. You will learn her approach to building a painting beginning with graphing the image from both a plein air study and a photo reference, then building with a wash, followed by building up thicker paint. Each morning will begin with a lecture and a painting demonstration, progressively moving the painting each morning, building on each concept. As she moves through this process, she will be emphasizing the importance of seeing one shape of color and how it relates to another – Color Relativity, creating the illusion of light and atmosphere in the scene. Students are recommended to work from both photo references and plein air studies. The main purpose of this workshop is to provide tools and steps in studying and painting water in your paintings. Although, it’s always more satisfying to have your own original concept, the main purpose of this week is to arm you with information to take home and integrate into your own paintings. Kami will provide additional reference material to use, if needed. There will be ample time to paint with critiques and feedback throughout the week.
