Value Studies and Color Studies for Painting Success with Jean Anderson
This is a Zoom Class
This class will teach you how to do a value study or not and a color study prior to starting to paint. It is suitable for all mediums and all levels. As artists, we love to leap into the
painting without a clear idea or at best a vague idea of where we are going. This rarely turns out like we want it to. By doing these two simple, quick things before you start the
painting, you will be guaranteed of a more successful outcome. I'm just like you, I don't have patience for a lot of fooling around so I've taken the time to figure out how I can see values quickly and
how I can work on composition, color and all those elements that really make a painting. You will be free to make your own artistic changes to the subject, composition, color etc. I'm more about
teaching how than teaching you only one painting.
After we complete the quick value study and color study as I share my tips and hints. The entire process for these two tasks usually takes 15-30 minutes and will prevent grey hairs, crying and other emotional responses to a painting gone wrong. We will learn how to see values quickly, why it is a good idea to move objects and other tips in a
fun interactive class.
I use a two-camera format so you can see my pretty face (that's from my Mom) as I talk to you. A second camera will focus in on my paper and painting surface. I demonstrate, then I
verbally repeat what I've done while you do it. I go step by step.
I have notes prepared in advance of class and have started filming the class as well for you to refer to after class.
