Her paintings and drawings are included in many books and have been used by
several magazines for their covers. Linda is included in Who’s Who in American
Art and Who’s Who of American Women.
The focus
of this workshop will be understanding, seeing,
and
capturing
Sunlight, Shade and Shadow.
We will also
explore the basics
of
Abstract
Design and the Inventive Use of Color
along with the
use of the
Grid
to enlarge your
sketches.
We will
work with
the camera and the photograph as a second
sketchbook
to learn to
create with it rather than copy
the
photograph. Previous
sketches,
old or new paintings, and photos taken by the artist
can be the
source of subject matter. Attention will be given to the
Development of a Personal Painting Style.
Beginners
welcome. Advance students will be given individual challenges.
