BeckerArt FLOAT-YOUR-PIGMENT Newsletter March 19th Painting People

Published: Tue, 03/19/24

Hello

Welcome to the FLOAT-YOUR-PIGMENT Newsletter #459

Thank you for subscribing to my newsletter! I have hit over 1000 subscriber last week which makes me feel so honored that I get to teach so many of you. I love teaching others to be the best artist they can be. If I am missing or haven't gone over a particular lesson please let me know so I can add them into my teachings.

Last week we worked out how to gesture people into a painting by using David's Dabs/Bob's Blobs. This week I will be showing you how to draw in people that are part of the center of interest or are big enough that there needs to be more details in these people.

On Saturday I leave for Kanuga Watermedia Workshops so there will be no Saturday class in McHenry. There will not be a Sunday Demo with David or a Paint-a-long next week because of how busy we will be at the Kanuga workshop. The newsletter will come out on Tuesday but will probably be very short. This is a week I look forward to every year because of how busy of a week it will be. There are still a few spaces left in my workshop... sign-up HERE

The watercolor painting above was done on my Sunday Demo with David

The Sunday demo is usually at 9am cst on my YouTube Channel SUBSCRIBE PLEASE.
