SPRING FLOWER DEMO





We asked three of our accomplished artists to show us how they approach a painting and then demo how they apply the paint. They were given the same reference material. The artists were Helen Lamprecht and Lois Sangari and Jeanie Wallace.
Helen drew hers onto a fairly large piece of stretched paper. Further back leaving more space in the foreground. And she saved the whites using masking fluid. And added more daisys into the foliage and around the vase. She also painted a dark back ground.
Lois used a smaller size paper with her drawing more in the foreground and the marmalade jar was the focal point. With her foliage being painted all at one time. Her painting was set with a light back ground.
Jeanie's painting was smaller and almost finished in the afternoon. I do apologise for not being able to describe the painting but I did not get to see it. I was away and only got to see the others at Zanne's class.
People were able to walk around watch and listening to the artists.
