Ep. 60 Understanding Value with Sarah Sedwick (Mini, Part 1)

In episode 60, I’m talking with Sarah Sedwick about an absolutely essential concept for artists: value.

In Part I, you’ll discover great tools for simplifying that complexity and why they are critical to creating stronger paintings. You’ll learn all about creating focal points, deciding hierarchies and the power of contrasts.

In Part 2 available over on Patreon, we move from Sedwick’s preparatory studies into how she thinks about value in her full color paintings. 

You’ll discover new ways to think about your most saturated colors, reasons to premix your paint piles and why Sedwick is always keeping an eye on her whites.
