- Riverbed, high-key painting study 12:44am Oct 19
Painted this little study in my studio the other night from a reference photo. The view is from the Rubicon Trail looking down onto Lake Tahoe, which in this part of the lake is the deepest near shore...
I took another shot at this composition, but intended to take the high-key concept further, but failed really. I like the way the painting came out, just felt I could have made it ever more “high key”. I’m going to continue to work on this. I pa...
I’m continuing my exploration of high-key painting, which I define as painting in a narrow range of values, in the higher key of lights. I don’t know where this is going to lead, but it’s great to practice the control in value needed to get these paintings to work. I th...
Brent Jensen good job Ed on all your sales. Keep it up!
A big thank you to those that participated in my poll yesterday to select the top 3 paintings. I’m going with your recommendations, BUT, adding this new one below. Even though I felt I had a pretty good selection of paintings for the show tomorrow, I cranked out one last painting this morning. ...
I have one more day of painting tomorrow for the San Luis Obispo Plein Air show opening Friday, but I need your help. I must select my top three paintings for the show. I’ve posted the first 6 I’ve painted this week. What do you think, which should I choose for my top 3? Do you have a favorite? Yo...
It’s been a long week! Everyone worked really hard, so today, we just focused on painting after a brief demo. I learned a lot from Peggi, and can highly recommend her. Her next workshop is at the Scottsdale Artist’s School in November. As...
Today Peggi Kroll-Roberts focused on the structure of the head. If you think of the head as a structure of planes, it becomes easier to paint. Each plane has a relative size, shape and direction...
Day 3: “High Key” Painting Day 3 of the Peggi Kroll-Roberts workshop at l’Atelier aux Couleurs focused on painting “high-key” paintings. This approach to painting is focused on a narrow range of values at the high end (light) of the value scale. I’ve rec...
Peggi taught us a couple more tools for painting. This was an interesting idea: paint a study with as few brushstrokes as possible. You design and then draw a composition that allows you to paint with as few big shapes as possible...
Today was the first day of a 5-day Peggi Kroll-Roberts at l’Atelier aux Couleurs in Petaluma. Peggi has a wonderful unique style for painting the figure, so I’ve looked forward to studying with her for some time. She’s also a lot of fun. Today, we started simple: gray scale paintings. Thes...
Concentrated on just one painting today, the last day of North Tahoe Plein Air. While I was looking for a spot, I ran into judge ZeeZee Mott, who was painting on the shore even after just arriving home from Africa the day before...
Another beautiful day in Tahoe! I spent the day in Blackwood Canyon, a favorite spot of mine in the Fall for the turning Aspens. I painted two, but the first I’m not sure about, so I’ll hold for now. Blackwood Canyon Streambed, OIl on Linen, 12x9
