[typography font=”Cantarell” size=”24″ size_format=”px”]Doing studies is a proven way for learning visual principles. Many times, a study will speak its potential to become a finished painting. When that happens, the artist switches intentions to bringing clarity to the work while reinforcing the principle from which the study grew.[/typography]

 

[typography font=”Cantarell” size=”24″ size_format=”px”]This series of tutorials focus attention on ways to move beyond the study towards a finished piece. All these are taken from studies done in previous lessons.[/typography]

 

[typography font=”Cantarell” size=”24″ size_format=”px”]With every brushstroke we make, we are composing.  Just as with any creation, we begin with a structure, then as the art work begins we place shapes and colors according the concept with which we are working.  But the time comes when we move to a different level of thinking and decision-making–that moment when our intention becomes to bring clarity and resolution to the work.[/typography]

 

[typography font=”Cantarell” size=”24″ size_format=”px”]Among Dianne’s passions about painting and teaching painting is how composing principles can expand creative freedom if the artist transcends the “rule” idea and instead, transforms the principle into a tool that opens creative doors.[/typography]
