RAY ROBERTS SERIES #2: DEMO#1: JAN 11, 2018

Updated: Mar 2, 2021


Ray painted a view from a cliff overlooking the ocean in Laguna Beach, Ca. He did a beautiful demonstration of how to paint water and waves crashing over rocks. The lesson covered reflective light and disappearing shadows when there's reflective skylight on water (comparing water to glass). He quoted master painter, Dan McCaw, "Sunlight harmonizes everything" when discussing colors relating to each other and simultaneous contrast. I've added a few progress images below.

The LIVE demo recording was available to our participants to watch for a limited time. The viewing time has since expired. If you missed the LIVE demo, no worries--we'll have it available for purchase in our "Streaming Videos" section on our website soon.
