Students will use oil or acrylic paint to paint from photos. They will have a choice of dozens of photographs consisting of trees, boats, cityscapes, figures, koi and hanging fruit. Students will also have the option to paint from their own photos if they choose. Penix will cover topics like how to make paintings more three dimensional, the power of warms and cools, color theory, harmony, edges, shape quality, variety, simplifying, loosening brushwork, elements of design, elements of light and shadow, the power of suggestion and finally painting how one sees versus just copying a photograph. www.derekpenix.com
