<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">Today I started a project in which I will paint approximately forty different color studies of the same subject, my friend Dave Harris' DeHaviland Tiger Moth. These little studies, each 6 x 8" are oil on canvas and each will be different. This first study is done in cadmium yellow and violet. All studies will be mixed from only cadmium yellow pale, ultramarine blue, and alizarin crimson + titanium white.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">Each study is being offered for bid starting at $25. I will donate the proceeds from each sale to a charitable organization of the winning bidder's choosing. When the last study is complete I will paint a larger 16 x 20" painting of the Tiger Moth which will also be offered for bid, the proceeds of which I will also donate to a charitable cause. </span></div>

<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Not long ago a friend who inspired me to pick up a paint brush for the first time about ten years ago mentioned how he loved the painting, The Laundress, by Henri Marie Raymond de Toulouse-Lautrec, the French painter, printmaker, draughtsman, caricaturist, and illustrator.</span></div>

This last week Karen and I flew to Sedona, Arizona. What an amazing place. I attended a five day workshop with Abbey Ryan. Karen hiked a lot. We started off last Sunday with a plane ride over the Grand Canyon. The views were incredible.<br />

After I was finished with workshop on Wednesday, I engaged in a little en plein air brush work. It's hard to capture landscapes because of the constantly changing light. This was more of a quick color sketch from which I may expand it into a larger studio painting.</div>

Last month I decided that I wanted to take my painting to the next level, a serious, high art, level. I spoke with some professional artists I deeply respect and asked their opinions. It became clear to me that I needed to learn to draw well. After that I needed top level instruction from artists dedicated to teaching. <br />
<br />
Serendipitously, less than a year ago The Chiaroscuro Studio of Art opened nearby which teaches a disciplined, 19th century approach to learning to paint. This is South Florida's first true program of this nature, one which virtually all of the masters in the 19th Century, as well as many of today's living masters. More information can be found here at their website: <a href="http://www.chiaroscurostudioofart.com/" target="_blank">The Florida Academy of Contemporary Realism</a>.<br />
<br />
The student starts off copying what are known as "Bargue Plates," instructional drawings rendered by Charles Bargue, a French lithographer and painter who developed one of the first drawing courses. The student learns many concepts related to seeing relationships between shapes, values of light and shadow, and how to render shapes to accurately represent what one is seeing.<br />
<br />
The process is basically described by the steps shown in the plate:<br />

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
This is my first project and drawing in the program. I never imagined the time and work put into copying one of these plates. From the beginning the instructors saw problems with lines, angles, shapes and values, sometimes painfully subtle. In each phase their constant critiques kept pushing me in the right direction, fixing a line here, and angle there, seeing how everything related to everything else, and never accepting even the slightest imperfection. Eventually I started seeing problems myself. I am confident that the discipline learned by spending the time painfully recreating the drawing will payoff. I am guessing but I would say that I have at least twenty hours in this drawing. </div>
