Value Study:Purifying Mask


More grappling with values. I am following an exercise from Catherine Kehoe's student painting collection posted on her teaching website, Powersofobservation.com. Although the directions were not stated, I could see one group of portraits done with very close dark values and one group done with lighter values. I went back through my photos to find something dark, and it would have been better without all the white, but as it was I found it challenging. The lower portrait is done by a student, I think Jamie Baldwin is the correct name. Those student paintings are wonderful.

  2. Check out Fine Art Work Center in Provincetown,Ma for a workshop Catherine is doing this summer, another one is in Vt through Massart. I love what you have been doing lately with values and copying masterworks.
