Tuesday night with Emily Carr

Tuesday Night with Emily Carr

My Tuesday night still-life group has made a change for the fall. We will study artists who paint in strong styles and then attempt to evoke something of the artist while we paint from a common set-up or photo.

Emily Carr was our first model artist, and we looked at how she incorporated movement into her paintings. We had a terrific photo with lots of texture and action in the trees, so we were nicely set up for the task. But it was different to wonder what another artist might have done, noticed or emphasized and then to use that idea ourselves as we painted. It was a good evening.
