Felicia Forte
One of the featured instructors at the recent Plein Air Convention in Monterey was Felicia Forte, a San Francisco painter whose moody, psychologically engaging images combine hard & soft edges, contrasting color temperatures and complementaries, thick and thin paint, accurate drawing and expressive brushwork...and a limited palette based on the "Zorn palette" of four colors - black, white, cadmium red and yellow ochre.
Her blog offers photos, demos, news and insights, such as the following:
"limiting one or more of my options (shapes, values, edges, color) strengthened the others."
and
"good ideas are born from the bad ideas, and the good paintings rise from the ashes of the failed paintings."
She offers workshops, classes and private instruction in painting and drawing, along with custom portraits and projects.
