Description
by Deborah Chapin (Author)
This book covers a host of painting techniques for the beginner to the professional who paint on location. Depicting nature while totally immersed in nature can be a challenge but this book helps you think about how to maximize your work and opportunities. Taking lessons from Monet to Sorolla I have worked in the field for 30 years. I am giving you the benefit of a myriad of experiences from painting florals to painting storm paintings of seascapes on location. Profit from my experience and give yourself a leg up. Paint with confidence in all sorts of conditions and all sorts of subjects.
Deborah Chapin's Marine paintings have a long exhibition history starting with American Society Marine Artists in 1980 at the now defunct Grand Central Galleries in NYC. As an Independent artist since embarking on her career she has exhibited extensively in top shows and Museums including: Grand Palais and Carrousel de Louvre in Paris with the Societe National des Beaux Arts, Mystic Seaport Gallery International since it's inception in 1982, Of Ships and Sea Exhibits at Greenwich Workshop Gallery, Artist of America Exhibitions Colorado Historical Museum, Ketterer Kunst Auctions, and Lectured on plein air painting at the Smithsonian American Art Museum just to name a few. At the time of her debut she was one of two women in the national exhibitions of Marine Art.
