First painting in Italy was a small one. I started by laying down some rich over-saturated color and working into it by moderatly adding white. This approach kept it from becoming too gray. The first day was pretty gray and overcast. The fields of grapes though are ripe for harvesting after a few days of rain.
The demonstration for this one will be posted on Expert Village in a couple weeks. It was done from a photo I took during a plein air field expedition to Italy we offered through the Sedona Arts Center with Kathryn Stats and John Budicin teaching. Here is the link to the Video. http://www.expertvillage.com/videos/painting-oils-one-session.htm
Welcome to my blog, I will be exploring themes of landscapes, travels, figurative work and still life, updating as the work develops. Paintings are priced as marked. Email me to purchase a painting at italianwine@email.com

"PAINTING WITHOUT FEAR" April 26 -30 2010 Sedona Arts Center (5 days 9am-4pm) TUITION: $ 600 (all materials included)
This beginning or refresher painting course will give you a ‘virtual toolbox’ of basic techniques and familiarity with the materials for painting with oils and acrylics. We will explore still-life and landscape (also using photography as a tool). A mid-week venture will have students taking photos and creating sketches on-site in the beautiful Sedona environment for later use in our studio. Each student will work with their own personal studio space within the larger classroom. Step-by-step projects will lead to surprising results in an atmosphere of fun and discovery. Lots of individual attention provided. All materials are included for student use during the workshop. Call the Sedona Arts Center to sign-up at 888.954.4442 or 928.282.3809
This workshop will be offered again Dec 13 - 17 2010
