Annelise Firth – The Floral Still Life: Finding Your Way into the Subject (Online)
Date recorded: Saturday, April 6 – 9AM PDT/12PM EDT/5PM UK Time
In this one-hour demo/paint-along of the floral still life, Anne-lise Firth will share tactics for organizing and simplifying this often overwhelming subject matter. She will also show simple ways to quickly find your way into your subject matter in order to create emotional content and expression.
Recordings will be posted within 24 hours after an event.
Annelise Firth’s background in history of art and a master’s degree in fine art informs her practice in many ways – Turner’s landscapes, Vincent Van Gogh’s flowers and the flat patterns in a Matisse painting.
As a New English Art Club drawing scholar, sketching the composition was paramount. Nowadays the finished painting focuses on colour and creating a looser, more free, representation of what she sees in front of her.
