New Weekend class has started! All media welcome!

Last month marked the beginning of a new Sunday class added to my Home Studio schedule. We're having a great time! This class is open to Watercolor, Oil, or Acrylic painters and is geared to Beginning and Intermediate students. In addition,  I teach two other classes a week at my Home Studio: Watercolors on Wednesdays and Oil/Acrylics on Thursdays.  All classes run from 2:00 to 4:00 pm.  See my website for more information    www.jennastarfriedman.com

Same subject, different mediums

Painting the same view with different mediums: The top painting was done with oil, the bottom one was painted with watercolors.  Both are 8x10 inches in size.  I've been teaching a few of my classes using this subject.  It's both a landscape and seascape view. Techniques employing atmospheric perspective as well as linear perspective are used to create the sense of depth.

New Watercolors

Here's a watercolor of a still life I set up for my Home Studio Watercolor class. I was going for a more muted palette of colors than I usually use.   Shell and Roses, WC, 10x14 inches

Here's another watercolor painting of roses, this one much more close-up.  This was also done as a demo for my watercolor class that meets at my Home Studio on Wednesdays.  I love this class!  I'm very happy with the way this one came out, especially the loose interpretative background.  Three Roses, WC, 7.5x10"
