These painting studies where done during a 2-day workshop I took with Wyatt LeGrand. When I hear about painter's workshops, they are usually a billion bucks and I think 'who can seriously afford to take these?!'....but it learned about this one, it was reasonably priced (yay!) and considering I was already a fan of Wyatt LeGrand's work, I jumped at this opportunity immediately! Not only do I love Wyatt's loose brushwork and vibrant colors, I really connect with his passion for art education. He is a full-time art teacher, plus is an up-and-coming plein air artist and has been winning awards, selling his work, leading workshops, etc. He's a busy dude!

This was a challenge: Only lift your brush 50 times....yeah, I pretty much couldn't do it, went WAY over! ;)

For this one, we had to start the painting using straight color from the paint tube, no mixing!
Then we could go back and adjust color.
