Since we/I finished the Magnolia last week, this week I did a demo, more like a warm-up, for the demo I will be doing at the Torrance Artists' Guild on Tuesday. I needed to see if I could get it done in the time allowed plus I was able to find the colors I needed so I didn't have to look for them during the demo.
Another thing I think it is important for beginning and intermediate students to see is how other artists work. When I am teaching I am not going at my normal speed and I break up what I am doing into smaller chunks for students to digest but for me, it breaks my train of thought. When you paint, you can get into a groove and your brain is working several steps ahead of where you are so you see where you are going, that is how you build up speed no matter what you are painting or what medium you are working in. It was fun to just run with this and to see if I could bee the clock. I did with time to spare.
See you in class.
