Workshop 2019
Frédéric has traveled the world sharing his technique with artists
of all ages and all experiences.
To ensure a place in one of his next workshops :
Florence, Italy
Using traditional and non-traditional painting techniques,
Frederic will instruct painters on how to use photographs
to create a painting that surpasses the look of the photo, not just the imitation
The emphasis is on applying the paint and how to prepare the surface
Focusing on the brush strokes released and maintaining accurate color relationships
Students will reach structural volumes by focusing on the relationship between
all parts of the image with an organized palette
Deciding when and how to invent and experiment is a crucial part of the process
Students will be invited to look in more detail at the painting than the photographic reference
We will explore ways to involve details without exaggerating,
and what level of finish works best for painting especially
The painting will develop through indirect layers of opaque and transparent layers
to obtain the delicate nuances of the flesh and other surfaces
The end result can be a painting that captures the essence of a subject
and the intimacy of human contact that transcends a smooth, photo-realistic image
There are a variety of results ranging from abstraction / improvisation to a more illusionistic representation
All will be discussed and the challenges and benefits of each will be explored.
