“Let Loose” with Patricia A. Domanski
This is a 4-week series of classes. Leave the tiny detail brushes at home and join us for a fast-paced, fun-filled learning experience to loosen up your paintings! You have probably heard the expression “you have to slow down to speed up”. Initially, when learning our craft, it is necessary to procced methodically and thoughtfully taking careful stock of composition/placement, major value masses and selection of color harmonies, etc. Doing so, ahead of putting brush to canvas, will increase your chances for a successful outcome. On the flip side, if you feel your painting has gotten too rigid, too tight and you are looking to loosen up and throw caution to the wind, this course may be for you!

First impressions are often based on web images, high-quality artist visuals of your work or product; convey your professionalism and attention to detail, building trust in your work. We will focus on getting the image “right in camera”, reducing the need for post processing and editing. The class will accomplish this by teaching the functions of the camera to provide accurate color balance, exposure, focusing, depth of field and other factors.
