Looking at the DeCamp landscape I was suprised at the reds he threw into those shadows. Pretty bright in some instances.

So far you have got me thinking much more about value, edges, and now brush strokes when I practice painting.<br /><br />Speaking of meat cameras, have you seen Gary Carder's method of teaching painting. His students get impressively realistic results, but have no understanding of edges, brush strokes, composition, etc. He unabashedly states that he is teaching people to copy what they see, not be creative, and I guess that is all some people want out of painting.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17579185594957855023noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5682081471599286551.post-86821182582407423082009-05-21T08:55:29.620-04:002009-05-21T08:55:29.620-04:00Great post, using Joseph Decamp as an example drov...Great post, using Joseph Decamp as an example drove home your ideas perfectly. I went to the ARC site (the best online gallery in the world)and it is interesting to note how Decamp would use too very different methodologies of painting, one for the studio and one for outdoors. <br /><br />You mentioned pitching the painting. Mason was big on this idea, he would always tell us to pitch the painting from the middle, he would use Yellow Ocher as a middle value in the field, in the studio it became Cad Orange.jeffhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03014751431677271423noreply@blogger.com
