The Art of the Flower

Wednesday Mornings, 10 am to 12:30 pm, on Zoom

April 24 through June 19

In this online series Paul DuSold explores how and why great paintings affect us by making copies of master paintings. 

By watching the recreation of a master painting from start to finish the viewer sees how the qualities of color, shape, light and space engage the imagination as the painting goes from a blank canvas to a finished masterpiece. By seeing the painting develop, the viewer experiences the painting with much greater understanding!

As the painting develops, Paul describes every step of his experience walking in the footsteps of the artist who created the original. Context of social and aesthetic history will also be discussed.

Participants are allowed to ask questions at the end of each session.

In this 9 week series Paul will copy and discuss the floral paintings of 5 painters including himself.

The subject of the flower represents the most poignant symbol of beauty and joy of life as well as its ephemarallity.

The artists in this series are Antonio Lopez Garcia, Maria Moreno, Nancy Granda, Mina Mohtasham and Paul. All of these artists have explored their own personal expression in this inexhaustible genre – the art of the flower.
