What you will get
The Premium Package includes two full length demonstration. Randy has chosen two distinctly different subjects to highlight the key elements in each and support the tale of the story for the viewer.
STREET LEVEL IN SAN FRANCISCO (120 MINUTES)
LEAN IN: TOWARDS THE SUN (120 MINUTES)
In Street Level in San Francisco he will show you how to see the larger pattern of abstract shapes within a busy cityscape to develop a bold composition. Seeing the elements of a scene as the largest possible puzzle pieces is the key to dealing with the overwhelming amount of information presented. Randy shares a practical method for blocking in a painting in an “all-over” fashion in order to paint with more confident brushstrokes, handle value and color mixing, and to ease up on the many drawing challenges of the scene. Plus learn how to control color and edges while creating flow, focus, and depth.
In Lean in: Towards the Sun a train station in the city provides the backdrop for a scene that incorporates architecture, shadow shapes, perspective, and figurative elements. Randy will discuss the beauty of backlighting and the way it can add drama to a painting by providing strong shadow shapes and simplified masses for a bold design. Learn how to use strong contrast and clear shapes to build a foundation that frees up the opportunity for energetic brushwork and suggesting "more with less".
This complete package will provide you with the help and confidence needed to paint difficult subjects with ease and originality. These videos will surely inspire every artist no matter what your skill level.
