YOUNG REMBRANDTS AND ADULTS

At Hidden Talent Fine Art School we have a great group of artists ages 12-16. These students, some with no experience, have really excelled with this method. B. who is painted her puppy, has completed four wonderful works in oils and she is just 13! S. is working on an oriental garden painting. He recently won first place for his orchid painting in the Orchid Show in Edmonton. Well Done! E. is putting his finishing touches on a dirt bike, a complex painting! The front wheel will take a lot of careful painting, but he has the patience. Lessons are Mon. Evening and Thurs from5:00-7:00



G. Painting of steps along the beach. Her monochromatic is yellow ocher which will give warmth ot the painting. M.L. is finishing the foliage beside her door .V. is cleaning up edges on the bowls and berries. J. is working on her sky....a real prairie sky. L. has a charming picture of a grandfather and grandson planting the garden in the spring. Her work is meticulous!

Hint for the Day: Not all brushes are equal. We use synthetic taklon brushes for most blending and usually the underpainting. Expensive sable brushes are wasted on this part of the process. Save the $expensive one for the fine detail work, or at least use them when you already have a layer of paint on the canvas. Buy one or two new style brushes and give them a test run. Remember you will have favorite brushes and hopefully not to many just take up space in you paint kit!!
