Talk: Leigh Ann Gale: “Achieving more contrast”

Achieving more contrast in botanical painting

Creating more contrast between light and dark is usually what we need in our painting to stop it from looking ‘flat’. Leigh Ann’s workshop will help you explore tonal values in your painting to a greater extent, so that you achieve a more convincingly three-dimensional form. Subject matter – dark coloured seasonal fruits nuts berries or fungi, or edibles such as cherries. Participants may draw their subject matter in advance of the workshop to save time.”
