Saturday october 23

i've been watching the weather all week and lets meet in the class room tomorrow. it looks like it'll still be partly cloudy so we can work indoors on composition.

lovely overcast

this weekends iPad painting. it was completely overcast for Saturdays class which gives you very consistent light. i tried out a new app called Inspire Pro. very painterly. good comparative color picker, good brushes, nice cross-hair for stylus. 95% painted in Inspire and the other 5% in sketchbook pro for some scatter brush effect.

saturday october 9th 2010

we will be meeting at Millard canyon at 9:30am. the half hour is to give you extra time, don't abuse it. you will need to get an "Adventure Pass" to park there. they can be purchased at Sport Chalet, REI and maybe Big 5. you can buy a one day pass instead of a full year. make sure you have print outs of the homework!!! i wont look at your screen.

Trailhead and directions to trailhead: From Loma Alta Drive in Altadena, go north on Chaney Trail to the top of Sunset Ridge turning left and going down the hill on the other side to a large parking lot. the lot is down after the ridge. keep driving down.
