In this hour-and-a-half presentation, we will look at photographic references and how they can be adapted to increase dramatic impact and help in the process of story-telling. We will look primarily at sketchbooks in any medium, but mainly in pencil and oil paints. During the session, we will examine a photograph and try to avoid making a literal interpretation of its content. Through sketchbook analysis, we will consider alternative gestures and poses in order to create the most compelling image for a final painting.
