Painting with Acrylic with Mike Hernandez: Mike Hernandez | Workshop | Acrylic

A strong understanding of natural color and lighting is an important asset to any painter. Among the challenges of outdoor painting, desert scenes tend to be some of the most difficult subjects to paint. A painter needs to also understand the dynamics of atmospheric perspective to know how to change the color of rocks and foliage as they move back into the landscape. Mike will share his methods for tackling simple and complex desert scenes. Through demos and lectures, he will show students how to address every aspect of their work, from value, composition design, and shape to color hierarchies, paint texture, brushwork, and more. This is a great workshop
for anyone interested in painting and wanting to learn how to capture a rich sense of natural lighting and color into their artwork. Students can choose any medium to paint with—Mike will be painting in acrylic.
