When we are isolated in our lonely garret we should have enough time to 'Keep calm and paint' choosing one or more of the following Themes to bring and show when it's all over!
THEMES:
1. Venetian Dream 2. The Natural World 3. Fantasy 4. Genre: Scene of everyday life 5. Conflict and Adversity 6. Figurative 7. Cubist Still Life before an Open Window
Choose a subject and material you are comfortable but first Consider the following in order:
Theme Format Subject matter Concept Composition Palette Framing
Good luck.
Maybe we could send Fiona photos of the work to be put up on our Web site for inspiration - I'll send the first one soon.
