This weeks Student Spotlight welcomes you to into my studio to view the work of an incredibly gifted artist who is also an asset to our class ~ Virginia Hudgins.
During this session, Virginia chose to reproduce a sailboat photograph she found in Coastal Living Magazine.
With her great eye for color, Virginia selected a palette of white, purple, blue, brown and green paint.
Then used a combination of these colors to paint the landscape,
as well as the shadows in the sailboat and along the grass.
By means of a very steady hand, she enhanced the feel of a bright, sun-lit day with highlights of white, deepened the shadows of blue, green and brown ~

I love the painting with its purple-ish sky!
ReplyDeleteAnd thanks so much for adding Daily Vitamin Sea to your blog list..., I added you to my blogroll too.
I enjoyed this - watching the process from start to finish.
ReplyDeleteI work with a large community of artists daily - but unfortunately I don't get to get involved until after the painting has been completed (I work for a fine art and photo printing company).
Thanks again and I enjoyed looking at all the art on your site!
