BeckerArt FLOAT-YOUR-PIGMENT Newsletter June 22nd, Fire

Published: Tue, 06/22/21

Hello

Welcome to the FLOAT-YOUR-PIGMENT Newsletter #318, Fire

I am so excited about heading out this week to take that road trip up north to 3 separate in-person workshops in a row. I just love teaching you in-person so I can watch you like a hawk. Being right there with you really helps me see what you are doing and I can teach you so much better that way! Sign-up for my live in-person workshops below... can't wait to see you all!

Seeing that I will be heading up north and there is usually a campfire involved in the northern woods of Wisconsin and Minnesota, I figured it's time to get in some practice to learn how to paint campfires. A campfire will be this week's paint-a-long subject matter.

On June 25th and 26th, I have a 2-day acrylic watermedia workshop in Minocqua, WI with the Lakeland Art league! Everything is supplied for this workshop so you just bring yourself and be ready to learn. Sign-up ASAP

I also have another acrylic watermedia workshop at The Duluth Art Institute on the 10th and 11th of July

Painting Fire

One of the things that I truly love about summer is gathering around a campfire in the evening and staring into the fire and looking up at the sky to watch either the sun go down or watch the stars in the sky. Telling stories and singing around the campfire is also something that makes a summer special.

I don't think I have ever done a painting of a campfire so I thought no time like the present to try our hand at painting fire.

Watch the video below to see how I painted fire!
