The Figure Indoors
The environment that surrounds a figure in a painting has as much influence on the meaning of the piece as the figure itself does. In this three-day workshop, Corey Pitkin PSA, IAPS/MC will guide students through his approach to creating moody, evocative pastel figure paintings that use interior spaces to tell a story. Topics discussed will include not just the technical hows of simplified anatomy and perspective, but also how color, light, and mark-making influence the perception of a scene so an artist can cultivate a desired mood. A reference image will be provided, but students are encouraged to bring their own photos to work from.
