Ridgewood NJ, Renowned artist Kenn Backhaus will be giving a nocturne demonstration following our Annual Members Meeting on Sunday, June 11th at 2pm.
“The Evocative Light of the Night”
Kenn has always stated that, “everything under the sun and moon is fair game” when it applies to the creative arts.
Kenn will lecture on and show through a demonstrating examining the principals of the nocturne subject.
For decades artists have been enthralled by the effects of the evening light upon the landscape. Understanding that color usually becomes a minimal consideration in a nocturne, the explanation of the importance of developing a strong design pattern within the composition is critical.
Kenn will explain that your creativity is revealed through your own experiences and the use of your knowledge comes the developed skill to create something that may not be revealed in your reference. He will use a reference of a day lite subject and convert the effect to a nocturne atmosphere.
