I have been teaching at Chesapeake Fine Art Studio in Kent Island. Here are a few paintings from the classes I taught.
Oriental Jar and Grapes, 11 x 14
This painting was done to show students a split complementary color scheme, which in this case is red with blue-green and yellow-green.
Copper Pot and Apples, 11 x 14
After a class on strong Notan designs and brushstrokes, I painted the same setup with the students during the open studio.
Peonies, Tangerine and Pear, 11 x 14
This is done after my classes to practice what I preach: Direct the eye to the focus of the painting using the brightest color, the sharpest edge, and the strongest contrast.
