Ending the Fall and starting the winter Season always makes us start thinking in SNOW! Here is Madison with her winter Inspiration!
Hello Dear Artists!
Christmas is coming. The kids in the Oakville Painting Studio are speeding up their projects in order to finish on time before the long-waited holidays, and yet, the quality of artworks is there!
I would like to apologize for not updating the blog as fast as I would have loved to, but a very tight schedule got in the way.
However, here I am showing more of the fabulous works. The themes are quite eclectic, but you can tell that the emotion and feelings put into them are there.
Katie finished her exercise in a monochromatic composition of pumpkins.
And not only that. Before she had already finished another wonderful photograph she took, once again from the inspiring Muskoka region in Ontario.
Very much for the Fall. Alexa, after a tight soccer season managed to finish her toucan from Costa Rica;
Talking about landscapes, scroll down to see Danielle.
Yes, it is her second painting and she is already accomplishing complicated compositions and a lot of work in colour gradation.
Congratulations for your choice and that you never had a doubt to accomplish this painting!
Alicia decided to bring one picture taken from her grandmas cottage in Muskoka. What a sunset! just beautiful photograph. she did a wonderful job with the Gradation and the sky.
Taylor also decided to share one wonderful photograph. Her landscape was challenging due to the depth of the image and the different textures represented. A happy smile always is a sign of feeling great with their excellent job! Way to go, Taylor! Can you tell they are BF?
Keep up your friendship!
Nicholas, I must say, is an expert in sketching, yet now he is learning some acrylic techniques to improve his skills. Not only he managed to finish a composition of a still life with peppers
he also painted this.....
Here he is while painting a wonderful picture taken by his brother. This is his cat, and the expression of the face tells it all! MEOW!
Paula also made a monochromatic exercise. She decided to paint a flower in reds....what a flower! way to go, Pau.
Agnes wanted to do a poppy, so she chose this interesting composition behind a romantic window....I have to congratulate Agnes because in these years in the Studio I can really notice her awesome advance both in colour mixing and technique.Keep up my dear Agnes!
Below you can find one of the first exercises inspired in the impressionism with hand cut coloured paper by Camie and Jamie. Two wonderful girls that are awesome in drawing!!!! Some kids need to check out their wonderful sketching skills!
The inspiration was taken from a landscape in the Fall. Keep up girls! I am sure you two will go really far.
And last but not least we have one pain ting by our wonderful Luca! Shy sometimes, quiet some other times, but has a smile that conquers all our hearts!
I love Marine painting especially because of the challenges the kids have towards the reflection in the water. Like the other we where commenting before, this image is nice to look at because of the movement of the water.
Congratulations again, my Dear Luca!
So as you can see, the delay in the blogging, of course was in part due to all the wonderful works these amazing kids are accomplishing. I really feel so lucky to have such talented kids in the studio that enjoy every second of the time in it.
I am sure when time passes I will feel even more proud to find that most of you will reach the stars!
