With excitement we welcome Illinois painter, Clayton J. Beck III, for this three-day painting workshop. Clayton calls himself a “Realist Impressionist” as a way of identifying the subjects and style of painting that interest him. His aim is to show the story behind what often appears to be an ordinary scene… through painting in front of the subject. Clayton will help students find spontaneity, excitement and a greater comfort level painting. Students will find answers to questions like: What do I choose? How do I start a painting? When should I stop? Should I take photos? What’s my first move? The colors vary as the light moves… what do I do next?
Clayton will do a demo mixed with personal instruction. Students will also learn about harmony in composition, the colors of light, alla-prima lay-it-and-leave-it brushwork, and the beauty of restraint. Plus, how to have some great fun in the midst of it all. This class is suitable for the confident beginner through advanced painter.
Supply list available after registrtion.
