Robert Goldman – Quick Take on Painting the Grand Canyon (Recording)

Date recorded: Saturday, November 2, 2024

Level: All

Medium:

Presentation Type: Demo

Join Robert Goldman as he walks us through his process for painting the Grand Canyon! The Grand Canyon is such a vast and overwhelming place to paint, so you need a fundamental approach which includes simplification, deciding how much of the canyon to include, starting with simple light and dark shapes before developing the color. Keep the stronger value contrast in the foreground and keep the values lighter and closer as they recede in atmospheric perspective. Remember, “Value does all the work, and color gets all the credit.”

Free!
