Palmettos, Pine Trees
& Spanish Moss IN Oils
LIVE ONLINE DEMO with Alex Sharma

 
WHEN:
Friday, November 12, 2021
(10am to 11:30am EST)

Imagine painting in a spontaneous way with simplified brush methods for depicting the flora of our landscape.
Our focus will be palmettos, pine trees, and Spanish moss. Brush technique, surface variations, and color mixing will be demonstrated showing how to obtain a lively, realistic—yet loose— appearance.

Alex will be painting in oils; however, much of the brush technique is the same for all paint media.

Join Alex using the medium of your choice.
