How To Paint From Photo References Without Copying All Mediums Welcome by Robert Joyner

In this course you will learn many ideas for how to paint from photo references without copying every detail and nuance. The lessons are packed with useful tips for all levels from beginner to experienced artists.

The course has four sections.
Section One: Robert will create a series of four paintings all inspired from photos. Each painting is broken down from the very beginning. The steps will include understanding what’s included in the original photo; then Robert will extract the elements that are interesting; the scene is re-worked into a new design based on his thoughts and vision. Then a finished painting is completed so you see the idea(s) come to fruition.

Section Two: An assignment that includes seven photo references. You will take each image and use some of the ideas Robert shared in section one to make edits that appeal to you.

Section Three: Robert completes the same assignment using the exact same images as you. This will give you something to compare your work to so that you aren’t left with questions. There are no right or wrongs but it’s useful to see how he approaches each image.

Section Four: Create a final painting based on your favorite design. Robert will paint his favorite and toss in a bonus video of another 🙂

When you are finished you will have some fresh ideas and techniques for working from photos.

All mediums are welcome!
