Description

Reproducing a Monet MasterpieceThis course teaches basic and advanced techniques for reproducing Monet's Masterpiece "Bridge at Argenteuil." This fun and challenging reproduction is designed to walk you through from start to completed painting. Do more than reproduce an image. This course will show techniques that can be used in your style to achieve a very loose effect. The course covers all aspects of the painting with hours of demonstration videos to follow along with and lectures going over each phase. This reproduction with a limited palette will significantly improve your mixing skills. You will use tools like a proportional divider and color checker for verification throughout the process.  The course includes underpainting, blocking, and detailing the painting from start to finish. The video shows the limited palette, so you can see the mix as the reproduction develops. This course will require several sittings and allow some areas to dry before completing the sections. When you have finished, you will have a beautiful addition to your collection of one of the greatest masters of impressionism.  There are a few bonus videos that I have included so you can save money building your own color checker and glass palette for under $15.00 each.
