And so it goes : I'm back to blogging, after 3 years, after so many things happened in the World.
After so many things happened in my life personally and creatively...
The truth is I feel like there is such a distinct line between "before and after" ...May be, one day I will describe it all in details in my book ..Yes, in the autobiography of my "eventful life "
But now, I just want to share important art tips about mistakes my students ( and I ) are making times after times while painting :
1. The first tip is about the composition ...despite my teaching experience for 20 years and preaching this tip year after year, I myself am constantly making this mistake - the horizon line is not that dramatic as I wish to placed ....Somehow it's always slowly moving to the center ...Please pay attention to the most important placement of composition
2. Another mistake we all committing is losing your darks in a process of painting - So please, reestablish your darks as soon as your values started to compress..
3. And another big compositional offender of my students work is overlooking the tangent
4. One of the most important aspect of color in the painting, and the subject which is so unclear to majority of my students is warm/cold contrast in painting - Important : make sure you keep a warm/cold contrast and keep it at the right values! Does it sound as abracadabra ....then you need to sight for my color mixing class :)))))
Here is a few of my latest paintings I tried to applied all mentioned above concepts correctly and intently
" Quiet Moment" oil on linen , 20x16
" Silver Over Gold" oil on linen 24x18
