From Brush to Palette Knife -- Lilacs in Crystal Vase by Trisha Adams
Trisha Adams
Trisha takes a painting from the planning stage worked out with a brush to final thick oil paint application with a palette knife in this stunning still life of lilacs in a cut crystal vase.
In this oil painting video, Trisha discusses:
* Changes to the reference photo to make a better painting
* What she thinks about before she begins
* The color harmony of the painting
* How the eye will moves through the painting
* The effect of a hard edge all the way around an object
* The role of contrast
* And what changes are made the next day with a fresh eye

PEOPLE ARE SAYING...
Trisha, I love the video - I cannot think of one thing you could do to make it better. You were so real, very informative and you showed your palette!
I love the fact that you took a photo that did not have perfect light and shadow and brought your own interpretation that created a gorgeous painting much better than the photo. You gave a lot of “tips” along the way such as “what color is the light?” “what color is the shadow”? And how things go off the edge and can lead the viewer into the painting.
You showed the way you mix color and explained how values are so important.
I enjoyed it so much and plan to watch it again and again. Thank you!

"I purchased your video demo of the Lilacs in a vase and had a lovely day painting them yesterday! I’m aware I used the palette knife inexpertly, but really enjoyed trying it out. I just wanted to thank you for the inspiration and to say I found your teaching invaluable."
