Awareness of Edges
w/Fred Jackson
October 25
10:00 am – 4:00 pm
Awareness of Edges:
This one-day workshop teaches participants techniques for creating varied edges in their painting. You’ll learn how edge adjustments can enhance visual impact, guide the viewer’s focus, and build dynamic compositions. We will explore how factors like atmosphere, light, values, color, motion, textures, and form create opportunities for different edges in our paintings.
