Makes Nancy Tankersley the Ideal Painter to Learn From?\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"margin-top: 12.0pt;\"\u003eAfter starting her artistic career as a portrait painter, Nancy ventured into the world of figure paintings in 1997.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"margin-top: 12.0pt;\"\u003eAfter producing figurative beach paintings, which have since gained recognition in galleries across the US, she now focuses more on “contemporary life” paintings.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"margin-top: 12.0pt;\"\u003eWhile she enjoys plein air work, she also loves painting in the studio, where she works from a photograph.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"margin-top: 12.0pt;\"\u003eWhen you do this yourself, you’ll save an enormous amount of time because instead of having to stay outdoors to finish your painting, all you do is take a photo…\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"margin-top: 12.0pt;\"\u003eBring your camera back home (or to your studio)…\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"margin-top: 12.0pt;\"\u003eThen simply start painting based on the photo!\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"margin-top: 12.0pt;\"\u003eIt’s extremely convenient and there are many advantages painting this way as opposed to plein air.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"margin-top: 12.0pt;\"\u003eAs you might have guessed, it’s this type of painting you’ll be learning.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"margin-top: 12.0pt;\"\u003eThough before you think this is just a “follow along” sort of training, think again.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"margin-top: 12.0pt;\"\u003eIt’s much more than that.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"margin-top: 12.0pt;\"\u003eHow?\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"

If so, you need to see how Nancy uses two tiny “specks” of green to make the whole painting more pleasing on the eye\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWhy you should stick to using an odd number of figures in your painting\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNancy tells you the shocking way renowned painter Edgar Degas managed to capture his models “mid-flight” (In fact a lot of his figurative work couldn’t have been done without doing this)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWhat to do if you don’t like certain colors on the original photograph.
