Degas’ Dancer

August 10, 2011 by kellywalkerstudios

Famous Painters Art Camp continued yesterday with a study of Degas. We painted a ballet dancer in his style.

Everyone did a great job on a very difficult subject.

Today we will continue with Van Gogh and maybe a little Jackson Pollack!

was this from a template? Or did you have them draw the dancer first and then paint it in?

  This is during Art Camp so I draw on the canvas for them and they paint them in a “paint along” where they follow my instruction.

You really do a fantastic job with these kids! Obviously you have come up with the perfect technique for them to learn and finish with some beautiful satisfying work.
