All's well in the Atelier in the High School at Bradford Christian Academy!

Hello!
 Have not been keeping up with posting here, so here are a few pics of ongoing work in the atelier, we are in our 4th year! 
We are the only approved atelier that takes place in a high school, or any school as far as I know. We are certified for a second year by the Art Renewal Center. 
more later!

Bust Sketches (NA)

Male Bust Sketch by Sandra Galda
pencil on paper
approx. 3"x5"


Female Bust Sketch by Sandra Galda
pencil on paper
approx 3"x5"


Just a sketches today.  (NA) Wednesday I had a wonderful visit with an amazing artist many of you already know. Stapleton Kearns is in my opinion, destined to be a legendary artist whose art will be held in museum collections- that is, those museums which treasure contemporary traditional realism. His landscape painting style is if I remember his term correctly, traditional realism. He is a wonderful teacher and he blogs some of the most concisely and amusingly written information every fine art painter needs to know. What a genius painter. I am so happy to have met him.

Pear Positioned (NA)


Pear Positioned by Sandra Galda (NA)
6"x8" oil on Raymar canvas board

Did this at the oil class yesterday offered by Ron Straka. He gave me some much needed critique on my work. My shadows have tended to be too cool and need warmth and a closer attention to including the local color of the surfaces my shadows rest on. I now have some great ideas from Ron how to remedy this. My shadows are a bit warmer and more correct here dont you think? If interested in purchasing contact my email address sgalda@aol.com or use PayPal button if included in this post.
