Studio Exercises

 Color Notes Exercise 5-2-11

 Still life set up for Color Notes Exercise

 Brown Paper Value Study of still life

 Second Full Value Figure Study by Sandra Galda
(unfinished, 2.5 days, 2 hour sessions)

First Full Value Figure Study by Sandra Galda
March 2011 (somewhat finished)

Here is some of the exercises I am currently busy with at Ingbretson Studios.  Paul's brushwork is evident in the colorful study at top, he took my brush and generously worked some on this one for my instruction. I will save it as a good example for my records of a "start."  The aim is to "hit the color notes" in the still life as accurately as possible and only roughly indicate the shapes of the items.  I have painted since childhood, but today is my very first day to pick up paint and paint in this studio!  I have been training in the Boston Style of fine art for the past 3 semesters. Even though I have not been busy with my own painting very much since March due to  a fractured wrist (rollerskating with our daughter and her classmates), I can do some artwork--but it does make my wrist hurt after a while.  If interested in purchasing this, or any of my available art on this blog, contact my email address sgalda@aol.com or use the PayPal button if included in the post.
