Many artists avoid adding figures into their landscape paintings because they can’t imagine how to do it. However, adding a figure or two can enliven a painting and even create a story!
Without delving into portrait painting, Ned will explain the basic proportions of the human figure. And then using a brush, he will demonstrate ways to capture a pose or gesture with just a few strokes.
Planning where to put figures before starting a scene is always the best, but Ned will show you how to add a figure into an already completed painting. Thoughtful design and composition will be discussed as well.
