Joshua 'blowing up' a small study. |

The workshop 'en plein air'. |
|
Everett Ranch |
On Day 2 we went to two new places, first along the Arkansas River at the Big Bend and later at the Everett Ranch. Day 3 was at the Riverside Park in Downtown Salida, CO. On the last afternoon, Joshua demonstrated how he "Blows Up" his Plein Air studies using both the study and the original photo on a computer screen. There is also a large mirror on the wall opposite his easel which he refers to frequently just to get a different perspective on his painting.
I really felt the workshop was quite good. Joshua has an infective energy and a way of helping you simplify complicated views and understand the complex relationships of Shapes, Values, Edges and Texture. Thanks Josh.
