Jon Foster Seminar at the Concept Design Academy

TutorialsSo I took this seminar with
Jon Foster (
www.jonfoster.com) at
C.D.A. (
www.conceptdesignacad.com,) and let me tell you: AMAZING! John is not only an incredible artist,
but the nicest person I’ve met in years!...
1. Jon about to start the seminar with Kevin Chen to the right.
2. Jon painting.
3. Close up of the oil painting.
Jon
tends to start his paintings with oils - yes, actual oil paint! He then
waits for the paint to dry, and then
photographs the painting, brings it into
Photoshop, where - along with
Corel’s Painter,
he finishes the painting digitally...

One of the great things about Jon, is that he is very approachable! He wanted us to see how he worked, how he applied the paint, and what he used. He also talked about things that most artists can relate to, like when do you know you are done with a painting, and when to go digital - Photoshop Vs. Corel’s Painter, etc...
1. Me making Jon nervous. 2. Jon and I - I’m creeping up to Jon, and Amy using my head as a podium to post on Facebook.
Fantastic workshop!...
Cheers!
