Tweaking Class: Collaroy by Maria

Maria tweaked two paintings in this session.

Before and After

Collaroy Plateau by Maria Imelda Argel.

The resultant painting was a very painterly landscape suggestive of Cezanne.

Tweaks:

Moved the tall palm tree.
Changed the skyline.
Added houses
Added shadows
We didn't change any of the original colours and textures - they survived as highlights on the trees.

Collaroy Beach by Maria Imelda Argel.

Tweaks:

Created distance by the use of lower chroma colours on the headland.
More convincing movement and colour to the waves.
More colour and texture on the sand.

"The tweaking session was my 5th coaching session.

I brought in 2 of my own compositions- Collaroy Beach and the view from our balcony in Collaroy.

The session made possible the transformation of my originals into "master pieces" I can be proud of.

I recommend anyone wanting to pursue painting as a hobby like me or as a career to try a coaching session with Peter. Am sure you will want to move forward with his coaching."
