Painting with Sue Pruette MDA

by Hazel Small
What a great learning experience with painters from as far away as Colorado, Washington D.C., Ohio, Virginia and three KVDA members. There was not an empty seat in Gaby Hunter’s Studio.
We practiced proper execution of strokes, spacing, and various topics as color, color mixing, harmony, value, intensity, composition, focal points, warm and cool colors, reflected light , background color, and how they work to create a painting.
To help us understand the certification judging process, Sue gave us an overview of what the judges are looking for in a passing entry, and how they set the standards for each set of scores. The highlight was when we were in the judge’s seat and in teams of two judged Sue and Gaby's entries using actual scoring sheets.What a fabulous week, learning, making new friends while enjoying old ones, and painting, painting, painting.
Thank you Gaby
