Description
Learn how to fix the most common painting issues to make your paintings more attraction-getting. Learn to view your paintings with a keen eye, to sharpen how you see images, and know how to proceed on a painting when you feel stuck. You will learn to improve the viewing movement and perceived depth in your painting, add focal points to bring attention to desired areas, and increase the time someone enjoys viewing your painting. Achieve exciting images using Nancy's distinctive method of eye choreography, and watch your paintings transform from good to great. Realistic or abstract. Oil, watercolor, acrylic, mixed media & photography - all painting mediums and styles will benefit. To make a great painting it takes more than just paint. Learn to fine tune and transform images into their full viewing potential — and you have mastery. Elevate your work from good to great. Get the results you want with more ease and speed.
Instructor's note for intermediate and advanced painters - consider up-leveling your expertise by taking Nancy's new course The Art of Painting Beyond Technique, instead of this one for more in depth study on painting concepts. More videos, more information and more complexity made especially for artists that want to improve fast and/or go professional by selling your work. Shrink that learning curve and master painting in record time! This course beats years of art school training.
Who this course is for:
- Fine art painters who want to take their images to the next level.
