FINAL - Urban Landscape Painting

I really feel like I've learned a lot from this class. Craig is by far one of my favorite teachers I've had here at the Academy. His style and technique is exactly where I would like to be one day.

I started this semester with only minimal oil painting experience under my belt, but I feel like I've accomplished quite a bit from painting more and more, both on location, and in class. Being surrounded by Fine Arts majors helped tremendously, I think. They bring such  unique view on creating art, that I think has permeated more own process and overall workflow.

I've also noticed quite a difference in how I approach my digital work. I'm noticing more confidence, and my "knowledge" of color has definitely improved. But I still have a lot of work to do.

I plan to do a whole lot more painting in the future. I'm taking Quick Studies with Craig in the Spring.
