About This Class
A rollercoaster paint ride on 4 short videos complete with music, color, and dashing, swirling brushstrokes that keep on moving right to the finish line.
'Speed Paint' teaches technique by bypassing the thinking mind and stimulating your imagination and awakening your intuitive faculties.
Watch it and I guarantee you will be inspired to get up and get creative with your character designs, illustrations, watercolors and any artistic pursuit you enmbrace.
Think of this as an 'Art Tonic' Just watch it, respond to it, and let the magic of Speed Paint soak into your artistic pores.
Here are two of our Speed Paint Works that you will see doing their magic in the class.All 4 have something important to teach and all without words. Actions paint louder than words!
Meet Your Teacher
I've been working as a full-time artist since 1980. I have had the pleasure of teaching art since 1983 and have taught thousands of classes on drawing and painting. I would consider it a privilege to assist you in achieving your artistic goals.
I have taught the basic and advanced mechanics and principles which give us the skill and confidence to express creatively, for the past 30 years. Sharing them is my passion!
What Do I Like Teaching?
Watercolors and Acrylic are my specialty. I work with oils also but not as often as the water based mediums.
I love trees, mountains, rocks, water, flowers, and all that nature has to offer. Getting out into nature always gives me a creative boost. You get the real energy and feeling of space and belonging.See full profile
Hands-on Class Project
The Class deliverable is a painting, character design, illustration, drawing, or photo that demonstrates an understanding of the value of 'SPEED'.
Not HURRY, HURRY, HURRY, but a confident mark or click that get's the job done quickly and with feeling and intuition.
Fussy will not work! Post something that is bold and brave. A good strong red swipe across the wet paper that spills out in all directions. A fast click of the camera that captures something a formal portrait would not. Be bold! Yes 'THINK', but then let go of it and respond with confidence and SPEED.
Here is the painting from the 4th short video. Each video offers you something different. this one is all about Dark and light values.
Best kept secret for Watercolors is stroke and watch, watch. watch.
"Think like a turtle and paint like a Jackrabbit!!" ( Edgar Whitney, 20th-century Watercolor Master)
See you in class / Ron
