SUMMARY:DESIGNING YOUR SCENE: Create Harmony in Land and Seascapes using 8 Principles of Design
DESCRIPTION:Howard Park and Lisa MiceliDesigning a scene involves creatively reimagining elements of a landscape or seascape\, as natural settings often lack perfect composition or ideal color harmony. This can present challenges in determining how best to convey the beauty of a scene\, deciding what to emphasize and what to omit.This class focuses on sketching and painting from photographs\, guiding participants through the process of redesigning a scene using the eight principles of design\, such as harmony\, contrast\, unity\, and variation. The goal is to help students create paintings that capture the spirit of the scene and draw the viewer in.Weather permitting\, part of the class will be spent sketching outdoors along the river at MMoA. Please bring a sketchbook along with your preferred drawing materials\, such as pencils\, charcoal\, pens\, or markers for sketching.5-week seriesTuesdays\, 9am 12pmSeptember 15 October 13Members $240 / Nonmembers $280 Class Supply List Recommended Supply List for Oil or Acrylic Suggested oil paint brands: RGH paints\, Rembrandt\, Lucas and GamblinHoward's limited palette:White: Titanium white\, large tubes.
