I love getting to know Eric and his outstanding guest teachers, The enthusiasm is infectious and God knows we just cannot have enough positive people in our lives!
Lori, it is evident that your great paintings, that look so spontaneous, are, really well designed, and that a lot of planning went into them! I’ve watched your video, “Bold Brushstrokes,” maybe 8 times and each time I saw what you explained here. Everyone should get your video to be able to ‘see’ what you explained here in action! Love the way you teach so much. Thanks
Lori made me realize why I need to keep my value chart available to check out the values I am seeing. Since I am a watercolor artist, it may be good for me to paint with acrylic the value scale on my white palette. And, knowing the paint dries at least 30% lighter that I have to go to the next darker wet paint value to get the correct dried value for my painting. Thanks Lori.
Interesting observations: Although the foreground was a little lighter than the background in the main landscape, it still showed atmospheric perspective because the lighter shape in the foreground had more contrast. Later in the video, the green and reddish brown paint look darker on the pallet because the pallet was black. I’ve enjoyed Lori’s videos and especially this interview. Thank you both.
Lori uses Zig Brushables Dual Tip Markers. Two brush tips offer two tones per marker, one color from the Zig Memory System range and the other a 50% tint of that color.
Thank you so much Publisher Eric Rhoads for your introducing with Lori Putnam guest artist for today 🎁 So very good information from her faith and belief about her art work in her daily practice as well as her class who are learning with her about drawing and painting. So today 🎁 I have new lesson from her that in plein air painting sketching is most important in making drawing and painting, because of we can not remember everything in the nature which we want to draw therefore something noting is important in making painting, we can decide how to draw light and dark and shadows after all making painting. sometimes in the same space three major part are equally but we can devided by the value of the each part by using some percentage of light and dark and shadows. Sometimes notean is helpful for different ways and ideas of making painting. we can make them as well as we want.just like foreground middle of the space and after that middle space within different ways that she's demonstrated in her painting.with 🐄 cows and mountain and foreground. which is made self making Idea. So thanks for your help and support for me with your 🎁 guidance.
Great to hear from you and you going to be watching Laurie's video. Eric I had been given a free digital subscription and didn't realize the lady that was letting me know that I had won.I declined it because I didn't realize who she was. so I'm hoping that we can fix that if not not a big deal I do get the magazine so good to hear from you once again.
honestly I think that the 2 value notans can be very misleading especially after seeing what Lori said about her painting compared to the notan.. Which is why I think a 3-value thumbnail is more valuable for the artist.!! Carol from Reno, nv
What I am talking about is making it very clear in the first statement, is it light and shadow or is it tonal? Naturally you will use more values after that first step. Especially in plein air, it is so helpful to divide what is light and what is shadow early on since that dang sunshine just keeps moving. On an overcast day, you have a tonal design which is 3 values from the get-go. Hope that helps.
First I like Lori's painting a lot, but I would like point out "Notan" which for a long time people referred it as only 2 value of complete black and White, acutully Notan is coming from Chinese "more Concentrated /saturated) it can be 10 as completely black but the lightest light is not "0" completely white at all only it's less concentrated, and been deluded by liquid, it has had to have a little bit of shade, even it's 0.0001% but never "0" Notan coming from Chinese saying Noung Dan...I always like to correct the saying of lots people talking about Notan.
Thanks for your comment. Notan (濃淡) is also Japanese meaning black and white. In Chinese, (浓淡) nóngdàn means concentrated and weak. I believe that might be what you are referring to. In no way do I ever actually use black and white. I use here to mean "divided into 2" -- what is in light is one; what is in shadow is one. Sorry for the confusion.
@@PutnamFineArtStudio hi Lorie thank you for your reply....I really do not mean you gave the wrong impression. I only wanted to point out the Japanese language and culture which including painting, calligraphy and many more or were based and inference by Chinese culture which were imported to Japan along the Buddhism long long time ago, that why so often Chinese and Japanese are able to communicate with each other by writing, that goes the same with Korea. For some reason “Notan” has been misused for years to refer to just black and completely #0 white. And the Japanese writing of Notan actually is Chinese word exactly the same writing, that shows where it’s origin. The exact meaning of it is the ratios of saturation of any thing or any color, flavor, taste and so forth. Lorie I enjoyed your talk a lot and love your paintings.

Lori uses Zig Brushables Dual Tip Markers. Two brush tips offer two tones per marker, one color from the Zig Memory System range and the other a 50% tint of that color.
Brushable markers have a value at each end for a foundational sketch. Interesting. I learn something new every day in Tucson, Az.
Happy Saturday- Jane from New York
She is an awesome teacher.
ah thanks!
It was the percentage that got me ,rather thinking of value one,value two,etc.

Thank you!!!

Thanks so much for watching everyone!!!

Very good ! Thanks !
Thank you!
What is this percentage thing she is talking about? What tech ascribes these numbers.
honestly I think that the 2 value notans can be very misleading especially after seeing what Lori said about her painting compared to the notan.. Which is why I think a 3-value thumbnail is more valuable for the artist.!! Carol from Reno, nv

On an overcast day, you have a tonal design which is 3 values from the get-go. Hope that helps.
Did the answer to the homework exercise get posted?
Is there a discount code for this video?
Brushables. Different values on each end....2 values in one pen.
Numbers are rising...
hahahaha, I first read, "Number are confusing." LOL

I cringe every time she rubs and traces her hand and fingers all over the painting….not good for a piece of art. Love her work!❤
