Tree and Moss, 10 x 8, oil on panel, L. Daniel © 2023
This another demo from my last workshop. We were painting at a location that was OVERwhelming in it's bounty of big giant trees and lots of Spanish Moss! What to choose? This was lesson in simplicity. Often a small segment of a huge scene can say all that needs to be said.
Choose the Scene and Composition.
Sketch Shapes.
Lock in Values.
Simple Masses.
Break up Masses with subtle value shifts, maintaining overall light and dark pattern. Save highlights until the very end!
