STILL LIFE FLORALS
When I paint, my aim is to create poetry, not novels. Fortunately, our viewers do a lot of this work for us. The human brain fills in so much information that we need only suggest most elements in a painting, leaving the rest to the observer’s interpretation. Once an artist realizes that not every minute detail needs to be included, a whole new world of creative possibilities opens up.

Each project will highlight a particular type of underpainting and a unique method to jump-start the piece. Exploring different approaches to initiate a piece, such as crafting a detailed sketch or working from the inside out with color and value is crucial.

Weather affects us every day so it makes perfect sense that weather would find its way into art both as a subject and as the backdrop in works created by artists over the years. But how do we depict something fleeting such as the wind blowing, the sun shining, the fog drifting?

How To Create Beautiful Paintings From Reference Photos
Working from life is unquestionably the optimal way to work, but it’s not always possible. Weather, mobility, time constraints, among other things makes painting from life impractical some of the time. Weather is often an issue for me. No matter how hard-core you are, sometimes conditions will not allow you to do your best work outdoors. You may be on a painting trip when there isn’t enough time to paint all the many scenes that inspire you. If we don’t use photo reference in these cases, we could miss out on an opportunity to paint something of great merit.
200 Landscape Photos to Paint
I always suggest that you take your own photographs, but because I know it’s not always possible for everyone to do that, I’ve put together this resource pack of 200 reference photos. I have many, many students struggle with what to paint and whether their photos are appropriate. I decided to share some of my pictures with you hoping they’ll spark new ideas on what makes a good subject. Some of them I’ve painted, some I haven’t. I hope that they will inspire you to get to the easel and perhaps take some photo expeditions of your own.
