OCTOBER DEMONSTRATION WITH CAROLE BAKER RBSA
Carole visited the Society in early October travelling from her studio in Shropshire.
Always the professional, Carole took members through her method of using acrylics to produce a painting full of feeling and atmosphere. Carole uses a number of techniques which she teaches at her regular Workshops. These include dry brushwork, colour priming the canvas, splattering but her overall art is about colour and feeling.
Tackling a difficult subject of a woodland stream Carole enjoyed the welcome from members and has sent the painting completed at the demonstration and finalised back in her studio for comparison. I think we can all agree it is absolutely STUNNING!
Thank you Carole and we hope to see you again. Carole writes:
Following
the demonstration at the art group a couple of weeks ago, I promised to
send a photo of the painting of how it was left on the day and the completed
painting - so the group can ‘spot the difference’!!
Completed
painting - ‘Wandering River’
I
worked into the painting generally all over adjusting the light and especially
the reflected light on the water. I covered lots of techniques including
scumbling, spattering and glazing. Sadly I ran out of time to put the finishing
touches to it on the day.
