Marble Falls, Texas: Luminous Skyscapes


  • Studio Marble Falls, TX USA (map)

A studio landscape workshop for artists. Each morning will feature a presentation, full demo, and exercises for students focusing on value & composition. Afternoons will be devoted to one-on-one instruction. Points of study will include:

  • Seeing as an artist: seeing shapes, value shifts, and color temperatures. We’ll look at midday skies, sunset & sunrise, and clouds in moonlight.

  • Planning your painting: envisioning your painting, using varied reference material, honing value and design, doing color studies

  • Design: Cloud-heavy compositions allow for a lot of artistic license in design, so we’ll look at different types of directional movement that give a cloudscape dynamism.

  • Stages of studio painting: drawing, block-in, color mixing, approaches to working a larger painting, refining texture & edges, tools for self-critique

  • Experimentation: exercises you can do at home to continue your growth as an artist

One-on-one instruction will be individually tailored. Students are encouraged to email several cloudscape painting examples beforehand and list some specific things they would like to work on.

Attendance fee includes a full color 40-page workshop handbook for further study.
