Those of you following my blog know that I painted this scene in Kevin Weckbach's class using only Windsor Violet and Windsor Yellow. Here is the same scene using my full pallet.
Yesterday marked the half way point through his class. I am enjoying painting again!!!!! We're off for 3 weeks, then back at it.

Boston Harbor Boats - Original 8 by 10 Inch Oil Painting by Colorado Artist Carol Hein
Boston Harbor Boats - 8 by 10 inch original oil painting by Colorado artist Carol Hein.
This was painted in Kevin Weckbach's class a few weeks ago. The visual approach is light and shadow. It is one of the paintings of mine he critiqued and one of four selected as studies that I can paint on a 24 x 30 canvas the last three weeks of class.

Water Taxi - Yellow-Purple Complement Study by Colorado Artist Carol Hein
Water Taxi - 8 by 10 inch original oil painting by Colorado artist Carol Hein.
Color theory was covered in Kevin's class last month. One of the exercises involved painting with two complementary pigments plus white. We had to stay true to value, temperature and chroma throughout the painting. I chose the yellow-purple complement and used Windsor Yellow and Windsor Violet. We all learned a tremendous amount about color mixing.
A second exercise was to choose one of the triads and complete a painting. The final exercise was use color as a visual approach - the whole painting must appear to be the color you choose from a distance. So, if you pick green as a visual approach, red brick first has to appear as a version of green before reading "red brick". Unfortunately the linen on my canvas buckled. I started over at home but have not finished the painting. I will finish and post it over the next couple of weeks.
Our homework over the past month has been to complete 8 small studies. Kevin is critiquing them in class (what a learning experience that is!) and beginning in April will help us translate the study to a large painting (one side must be at least 30 inches long).
I can't believe that the first 6 months of the class is drawing to a close. Half of the class has chosen to go on. Many of the rest want to take the summer off and then resume in the fall. I've chosen to go on.

Red Barn in Snow - Original Oil Painting by Colorado Artist Carol Hein
.jpg)
Red Barn in Snow - 8 X 10 inch original oil painting by Colorado artist Carol Hein.
This is another example of local tone as a visual approach. Kevin has asked us to complete 8 paintings in the next 6 weeks. He will then help us to select one of them to paint "large" on a canvas at least 30 inches long on one of the sides.
Last week we started color theory. I will post about that later this week.

Untitled 8/18/2013 Original Abstract Painting by Colorado Artist Carol Hein
Untitled 8/18/2013 This piece measures 16 by 20 but when matted and framed would be 26 by 30.
One of the reasons I enjoy abstract work is because everyone sees something different in the painting. My inspiration for this piece came while playing with my one year old granddaughter - blocks, balls, snow globes and stacking toys. Someone else looked at the painting and saw an urbanscape.
$250 unmatted and unframed. $350 for a finished piece.

September Light - SOLD - Original Colorado Landscape Oil Painting by Colorado Artist Carol Hein
Fall is my favorite time of year. The light in Colorado pours from the sky, shadows lengthen and colors seem to vibrate. I stumbled upon this beautiful little farm about a year ago ago and returned last September with a group of plein air painters. It has been abandoned but the Colorado Historical Society is in the process of restoring it.
This painting is sold but you may purchase a high quality print.
