LEARNING TO SEE COLOR AND LIGHT
Artists will receive challenging group and individualized instruction in plein-air painting in this four day workshop. Dee will observe the artists’ works and help them to improve rather than change their individual styles.
The emphasis will be on learning to see value changes, color temperatures, and composition. We will be building arrangements of abstract shapes that will form a strong foundation for the painting. There will be extensive studies on color temperature and value that will make the students’ paintings “sing” and vibrate with evocative color.
There will be short lectures and demos in the mornings. The remainder of the day will be spent plein-air painting and Dee will be working with everyone on an individual basis. Instruction will be with oils, however all mediums are welcome.
The workshop is geared toward intermediate and advanced artists who are striving to bring their work up to a new level. www.deebearddean.com

This is a 3 day classe in which students are taught a traditional pastel painting technique. Working with live models, students will explore drawing, composition, anatomy, proportion, value, color, and pastel application. Emphasis will be on developing form using light and shadow. For those wanting to speed up and become less tight in their work, this is an excellent class to take. Students do not need prior pastel experience. Some drawing would be helpful, but not imperative.
Model fees are not included and are due the first day of the workshop.
