What You’ll Learn In Form and Rendering

• Session 1: Form First
  In this lesson, we set up the foundational understandings and practices of “Form First” thinking. Most students spend a great deal of effort putting in details and still end up with flat paintings… let’s change that.
• Session 2: Light and Shadow
  In this session, we explore the ins and outs of applying light and shadow to our forms. Even better, Light and shadow is a language that will change the way you think about art, and enable you to work through complex problems with simple solutions… I can’t wait to see how this changes the way you paint.
• Session 3: Lighting from Imagination
  Now that we know about form, light, and shadow, we can dive into some ideas that will enable you to really mature the way you paint – and even let you paint from imagination with confidence!
• Session 4: Complex Forms
  A lot of students get lost in painting complex forms and end up feeling stuck, and no solution in mind with how to proceed… let’s talk about how to approach rendering complex forms with some simple solutions.
• Session 5: Materials
  There are lots of different qualities to the things we paint… soft, hard, matte, transparent. In this lesson, we talk about how to approach painting different materials.
• Session 6: Rendering in Context
  Every painting is a balance, and the surrounding context of your painting matters a lot when we are trying to create compelling and convincing art. Let’s talk about it.
• Session 7: Color
  In this session, we learn how to use color and reflectivity to enhance our paintings.
• Session 8: Efficient Rendering
  In this lesson, we learn how to take the possibly complex nature of rendering and focus on what makes it effective and powerful (not to mention creating compelling paintings faster). Are you ready??
