In this webinar, you will find out what to look for in a good reference photograph to paint from. You will see concrete examples of how Greta changes things up to create a stronger composition and more visually pleasing oil painting. She will also show you how to simplify messy areas and create the illusion of detail. As you jump into these topics, you will recreate a two-award winning TALP exhibition painting.

You will learn:

• How to choose a good photograph to paint from
