Change your outlook on “backgrounds!”
The most common question I get is “How do I paint my background?” Join Melinda and get creative with the “backgrounds” to your figurative work. She will present specific ideas to inspire your backgrounds (or negative spaces) and improve your compositions. It’s time to get excited about the WHOLE painting and embrace the design challenge!
