Create Luminosity
Linda Richichi, PSA, IPAP

 

 

Learn three secrets when creating a luminous painting, one that has an inner glow. 

In this 3-day workshop, experiment with the medium of your choice (pastel, oil or acrylic) using prismatic color. 

Follow along demos will be offered to enable you to use more sophisticated color choices in your work. Experiment with small color studies each day. 

Paint-along demos include:

• Basic color theory tips and the importance of prismatic colors to express luminosity
• A skyscape to capture a strong feeling of sunshine using strong light/dark patterns
• Translate a "garden" photo into a fast color study and a painting expanding on exciting color nuances

You will learn:

 

How adding more color in the shadow areas helps your paintings take on a richer feel. 

How to better understand why some paintings stand out in a crowd and win awards. 

How to make better use of colorful neutrals.

How each mark you make matters.
 

Personal one-on-one time at your easel will assist you in advancing to the next level in your work.
