Live! Composing Clear Narratives with Judd Mercer

March 12th 5 Pm PST/ 6 PM MST

Join us for an immersive 2-hour workshop with Judd, where you'll learn to push past reference material to create compelling landscape paintings. Judd will guide you through composing a scene with a clear narrative using value planning to direct focus and maintain visual interest. He'll also demonstrate how to develop a harmonious color palette that evokes a desired mood.

In this session, you'll observe Judd as he executes a small-scale gouache study, a crucial step in resolving compositional and technical challenges before embarking on larger, finished works. This hands-on demo is perfect for artists looking to refine their process and elevate their landscape painting from conception to completion.

Judd Mercer

Judd Mercer is a contemporary landscape painter and Colorado native obsessed with telling stories through light. Working on plein air and in the studio, Judd explores the tension that exists between ourselves and the landscape and plays with our relationship to wild, exhilarating vastness. Always on the hunt for transient, magic moments that exist in secret places along roads less traveled, Judd seeks to capture the powerful wonder permeating even the quietest scenes. Judd works in both oil and gouache and frequently participates in plein air invitational events across the country.
