YOU'RE INVITED!
TO MEET ARTIST
MIKE ROONEY
AND SEE HIS DEMONSTRATION
"Plein-Aire Painting in Oil"
When you meet artist Mike Rooney, one thing becomes clear, he loves to paint, every day, every week, in all kinds of weather. Some artists have studios, Mike has the great outdoors!
His eclectic style is not premeditated or overworked; it is spontaneous. Bugs, by-standers and bad weather are just part of the daily schedule. His goal is to capture in a fresh way, the parts of his world he considers inspirational on that day. He is an interesting and often humorous speaker, an experienced workshop teacher and does instructional DVD's for Jerrysartarama in Raleigh, NC.
Mike will be doing a free demo at Fountainside Gallery
Sunday Nov.29, 1-3 pm
Some aspects of outdoor painting that he will touch on are:
~ Equipment needed for plein air work
~ Working outdoors or from photos in the studio
~ Capturing light effects
~ Simplifying objects- stick figures welcome
~ Working quickly- time waits for no one
~ Massing in and values- from blobs to objects
~ Color and composition theory, its not as boring as it sounds
