NEW!
Firesign Studio is hosting a Painting Holiday in
Mexico!
“Chasing the Light”
January 20-27 2009
with
Perrin Sparks
Take Your Painting Holidays to the Beaches
of Mexico!
The bright tropical
light of Mexico provides high contrast settings where it will be easier to define form by value changes, dark/light, and cool/warm shifts.
Combine that with proportional
measuring, toss in some classical techniques and tips using a variety of opaque
mediums and stir it all into the relaxed setting of the small
fishing village of Melaque on the West Coast of the "Mexican Riviera". Painting from live models, combined with the
local plein-air landscape, Perri’s daily demos and instruction will get you
painting better than ever! What a great way to enjoy Mexico and paint away your
winter blues!
Days will be flexible, with some
formal painting instruction, some day trips, and time to paint on your own.
