Painting Interiors Workshop

Julie Devine, Gage Interior With Rhinos, 2011

Last week I participated in a painting workshop with Susan Bennerstrom at Gage Academy of Art. 

For five days we painted interior spaces on the third floor of the school, paying close attention to subtle shifts in the value and color of light on architectural forms. I spent most of my time on this view of the hallway, with my back touching the wall next to the door to the classical atelier studio. The Best of Gage exhibit was up, so a couple of student rhino scultptures made their way into the painting.
We also did several oil sketches during the week.
