If you know Susan's work you know her sense of color is powerful. Looking at her work leaves me wanting to break free of local color. Idk if I'll be able, in my daily practice, to push color as far as I have in these assignments. But ... I am thinking much more about color value and temperature, and about the power of pure color.
If you haven't taken a workshop with Susan I can highly recommend it. This is, I think, my fifth: 4 online. 1 in Vermont. Aside from being a thoughtful and accomplished painter, in watercolor and oil, Susan is a great teacher, with well-structured and eye-opening lessons and exercises; her feedback I have always found to be on point. I really appreciate how she takes me, and everyone in the class, seriously as an artist who wants to learn and find my way while meeting me where I am.
Can't wait for the next one.
