Peter Van Dyck – the barrelling of vision Online Mentoring with Mark Dunford Peter Van Dyck – the barrelling of vision Skills Posted on November 19, 2024 ← Learning from Turner I really enjoyed the back catalogue session on learning from Turner. I’m sharing a watercolour he made in 1805 which I used as a reference to try and learn from his brushstrokes and mark making. Version 1 is when I was looking at the reference. Version 2, was when I worked on the painting further, just going in the right brain. This was a helpful task. I made a study limited to three values. It took a lot of concentration seeing and judging values constantly. I am not used to doing that. I used a gray scale/value finder and a red filter to look through to judge. I see how doing more exercises like this can help my painting in the long run. With more practice I will hopefully I get better at judging without using tools . →
