This
unique workshop will begin with two days of
plein air painting around Sedona. Students
will be guided in gathering useful notes and
making small studies in value and color that
will be the basis for studio work on the
last two days of class. Over all concept,
composition, values, drawing, color and use
of edges will all be on the menu while we
take our studies and use them to develop a
studio work on a larger scale. All media
welcome, (Cody will demonstrate in oils).
"Each
painting I do begins with an idea, something
that's inspired me. I try to distill this in
my mind until I've achieved an almost
meditative state where I can explore which
compositions, color harmonies, etc., will
best serve my idea. The balance I'm
searching for lies in creating a work that
is technically proficient while preserving
that which fueled my passion in the first
place. The result hopefully will provide the
viewer with a perspective they have not seen
before."
