Below are just a few magic moments with Maria, as she made composition, design and the importance of simple thumbnails, so very clear. Yes, we were learning Acrylic florals, a la Maria, but the most important lessons she taught were about how to achieve strong, interesting compositions, via thumbnails, BEFORE we start painting! And to stick to the thumbnail that works best to achieve a well-designed composition. So much to learn and so much fun! Lots of work to finish, but now we know where we’re going. Thank you Maria, it was great!
