Consider joining Anthony Waichulis and Victoria Steel this May 10 at the ÀNI Art Academies America in Red Bank, New Jersey, for a special one-day walkthrough of basic representationalism utilizing the alla prima. With simplified representations, we will explore the following:
- The nature of representation: “the map vs. the territory.”
- Ensuring recognition survives abstraction.
- Practical considerations (ranging from painting tools to memory)
- The SNAG concept (Survey, Notan, Anchors, and Gradations)
- How an alla prima exercise can show us what and how to practice.
Anyone interested in these topics can join us for the day and even paint along, but please note that space is limited. For those interested in attending, please contact Anya Dribas. Hope to see you there!
