EGG-ology
Tracie Lyn & Marylin Huskamp
Combining the techniques of stenciling, stippling, and the richness of
painting, create artworks inspired by bird eggs and nests. Secrets to
forging perfect representations of such delicate and intricate natural
subjects, imbued with both color and depth, will be revealed.
Explore ideas for developing your own stencils, using stippling tools
to make purposeful yet random looking marks, as well as rendering
complex-looking nest structures via a precise painting method of
multiple single strokes. In addition, students will investigate design
principles of composition, design concepts of highlighting and
shadowing that lend a three-dimensional quality to any subject,
along with in-depth information discussed for referencing particular
bird species.
