Lori Putnam/Suzie Baker Bundle

Bring Vitality to Your Paintings with this Instruction Video Combo Here’s how Lori Putnam’s paintings have been described by art historian Jean Stern, “Like the natural light that figures so prominently in her work, Lori Putnam’s art does not sit still, it is constantly in motion. She treats the viewer to the total plein air experience — not simply the effect of light, which she captures so well, but the movement inherent in fluid sunlight. It is the motion of life itself. Lori does this like no one can.” In her “Bold Brush Strokes and Confident Color” video, you’ll experience Lori’s friendly teaching style as she presents a complete, step-by-step outline of her painting process to help YOU use bold brush strokes and strong color to bring your paintings to life!   In Lori’s video, you’ll learn: How to capture the movement inherent in fluid sunlight Lori’s start-to-finish painting process How to bring bold color into your paintings The best way to use brushes when you want to make a statement How to bring a new sense of confidence to your work A whole lot more!   To back up Lori’s work, we’ve paired her video with Suzie Baker’s “Color Magic for Stronger Paintings.” Suzie is an award-winning artist and highly sought-after instructor who has made color theory more easily understandable for everyone.
