Today I am featuring a few of the student paintings from the recent workshop I taught, Pacific Northwest by Brush, at the North Cascades Institute. To the left is Beverly Choltco-Devlin's light-filled painting of two mighty trees in the forest beside the Environmental Learning Center.
I admire the watery style, where colors flow into one another and edges are minimized.
To the right is Jennifer Molesworth's sketch of young alders beside a trail. Here Jennifer has let brushwork tell the story of these trees and their trunks. To the left is Joan Poor's striking sumi-style painting of lupines, forest and clouds. She has captured all the drama of the brooding skies contrasting with the rich colors of conifers and lupines.
Very nice, all three of them.
