Working From a Plein Air Sketch

"Bridal Veil Falls" 11" x 14"



Here is a plein air sketch that I did on location in Yosemite National Park. I used this sketch to create another painting in the studio. Although my passion is to work from life, it is good discipline to try to create that same energy in the studio because you have more time to spend on design and composition.

"Cascading Water" 16" x 12"
This was done in the studio from my plein air sketch. I applied what I learned on location about the movement of the water and the color of the light.  I was not a slave to the sketch but only used it as reference.

Love seeing more on your process. I love the artistic license you took, it's so interesting to see how you composed this and what you left in and took out. Fascinating!

I have been painting from ever since I can remember. I can’t forget the support that I received from my parents as a child. They nurtured the artist inside me really well. This was a really beautiful sketch. I really liked Bridal Veil Falls.

This was wiped out the studio from my plein air sketch. I applied what I learned on location regarding the movement of the water and also the color of the sunshine. i used to be not a slave to the sketch however solely used it as reference.

I used this sketch to form another painting within the studio. Although my passion is to figure from life, it's good discipline to do to form that very same energy within the studio because you've got longer to spend on design and composition.
