I got a chance to hone some skills by taking a workshop with Larry Moore, on my way to Key West.
The Workshop was three days.
Larry started the workshop with a talk then a demo.
We where encouraged to work on small oil sketch's to create simplicity.
Larry talked about materials and using different tools and surfaces to create our paintings.
The second day we worked on a four more oil sketches after another demo by Moore.
Larry used an underpainting in his second day demo.
The last day the demonstration was started with an underpainting where house paints where used as an underpainting.
I found the workshop very helpful in thinking of new ideas about surface and materials. Larry worked a bit with me on my brush work. I enjoy trying new things and growing in my painting. I'm glad I took the workshop it was a great way to start the new year with some new instruction.
Here is my first morning painting, where four paintings are worked on no longer than half hour.
The second day after the demo we worked again on small paintings.
This small painting was worked on the last day at Robbie's. Mostly I watched the demonstration.
