LETTING ALL PARTS OF YOU COME THROUGH (Suggested for Stage Four; Integration)
Sally Veach’s work walks that appealing line of abstraction and representational. In this month’s Art Critique she shares how she wants to make landscape paintings, but as her natural tendency of letting intensity and angst takes over, she can get lost in where she’s going. Listen in on how Nicholas guides Sally on how to find the balance and make powerful work.
In this video you will learn:
– Letting go looks so good in combination with more controlled areas
– Powerful paintings carry differences – loose/controlled, light/dark, large/small, saturated/unsaturated
– Looking at your work small, and without color, can really help you see if the design is working
– Choosing parts you love and sacrificing the others provides clarity as they are not competing
– Seeing color as value will help you make easier decisions about color
