We explore the magic of woodland and meadows at this time of year as these rich areas have been transformed from winter and the spring. We look at painting light in forests, the magic of bluebell woods and the rich tapestries of woodland edges and meadow landscapes.
Most suitable for water-based paint, acrylic watercolour and gouache, the principles also apply to oil painters.
I give advice to both beginners or advanced students about improving or enriching their work. Suggest experiments with formats, square, small, tall, and wide. We discuss and experiment with colour balance issues to add mood and drama to for atmosphere.
