<\/a><\/p>\nDuring the past week, painting\u00a0is the first thing I do in the morning and the last thing at night. I am preparing for my upcoming class at Digital Art Academy (DAA) \u00a0“MODIGLIANI INSPIRED” and I always like to \u00a0create several examples of the artist I am presenting. Before I introduce you to the painting style of an artist, I like to have a grasp on it myself – \u00a0I love what my\u00a0new classes bring to me as well –\u00a0\u00a0absolute joy and discovery. \u00a0DAA<\/a> is closed at the moment\u00a0for the\u00a0holidays and transferring to a new server but keep this\u00a0class in mind and I hope you will join me then, I will post additional info. Registration should open just after the first of the year. Class begins January 17th.<\/p>\n In \u00a0the above image I painted 3 inspired Modigliani images. This\u00a0image represents lessons\u00a0I have planned for you. However, during\u00a0the second and third lesson, you will have the flexibility to paint what you like. You may paint a portrait in all three lessons if you so choose, a cityscape, a street scene, trees or a pet – but in an Modigliani inspired style..<\/p>\n \u00a0`<\/span><\/p>\n I have been creating freehand sketches for you to use if you like, and gathering photos you might want to sketch from. \u00a0Below, I used this photo to create a quick hand sketch to paint. \u00a0As before, I have created more than enough tutorials\u00a0and demos.<\/p>\n I am enjoying\u00a0 creating \u00a0Modligiani inspired practice paintings of the\u00a0long, twisted bodies and the hollow eyes. \u00a0As I have continued with my paintings, I have incorporated \u00a0some of his style elements into my style and that’s what it’s about anyway. \u00a0We want to take inspiration from this artist to bring to our work. \u00a0We will never paint like\u00a0Modigliani, nor should we want.<\/p>\n Above is another \u00a0inspired\u00a0painting\u00a0you will watch me sketch freehand and then paint. It is actually painted as a demo of \u00a0the\u00a0brush set included. I simply got carried away!<\/p>\n Well, all the best to you, your family and loved ones – now and throughout the year. If\u00a0you have any questions\u00a0please contact me. Cheers, Winifred Whitfield<\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n Hello Everyone, What a busy time of the year! It is exhausting. It is a good thing I have painting to relax me.\u00a0It is a hard time of the year for many and for so many different reasons – so … Continue reading <\/a><\/p>\n<\/a>During the first\u00a0tutorial, \u00a0I will discuss Modigliani’s\u00a0life and his art.\u00a0Throughout his life he was ill and without sufficient money.\u00a0His paintings and sculptures \u00a0now sell up to\u00a0$50 Million to $70 Million with a recent painting being the top seller at a London Christy’s auction, topping the sales of a Picasso.<\/p>\n<\/a>Sold for $42,000.000.00 – 2013<\/p>\n<\/a><\/p>\n<\/a><\/p>\nRelated Images:<\/h3>
