Artist Corner

I can't believe it's the middle of October already. Halloween is coming up and the Holidays are right around the corner. I'm going to be away the first 2 weeks of December so I've added several classes to the November Schedule. There are 2 Paint-N-Parties and 3 weekend classes scheduled. I may be able to fit in a Paint-N-Party in December after I get back but we'll see how it goes.  

 

In the last newsletter I listed a few artists I watch on you-tube. Here are a couple others that I like to watch.

 

Draw mix Paint: Drawmixpaint.com Mark Carder is the artist. He has some great tutorials on color mixing. You can watch all of his you-tube videos on his website. He paints mostly still lifes and portraits.

 

Chuck Black: https://www.wildlifeandart.com/
Chuck is a very talented acrylic artist. Mostly landscapes and wildlife. His paintings are very detailed and I really enjoy watching his videos.

 

 

  

Happy Painting,

Janice

 

 

Painting Tips:

Be careful using thinner and other toxic mediums. It's a good idea to have more than 1 of the same kind of brush so you don't have to clean them a lot during a painting session. Use 1 brush for light colors and 1 for dark colors.
