Hey artists Are you struggling with composition in your landscape paintings? Composition is one of those things that comes up again and again, not knowing where to begin, feeling overwhelmed by a scene, not knowing how to arrange things so the painting actually works. So I'm sharing a free hour-long class I recorded live with a group of my painting students a couple of years ago. I walk through a collection of simple composition formulas that are easy to remember and easy to use in your own paintings, with lots of real examples throughout. Comment "COMPOSITION" below, and I'll send you the link. Happy painting, Sam P.S. Keep an eye out over the next few days. I've got something pretty exciting coming that I think a lot of you are going to love. More on that soon.

Took Sam's advice to grid my work. Holy cow has this been helpful. Image for reference.

Hey artists I thought I'd show you this painting that I started today. It's of some gum trees, based on some photos I took in Australia. I've just blocked in this painting so it's looking pretty loose. Next week I'll be adding details to this painting as it will be dry. We're actually painting this in Sam's Landscape Painting School, so I painted this live in front of my students this morning. If you'd like to see the replay and come and join me next week, where I'll be continuing to work on this painting, Click the link below to join Sam's Landscape Painting School. We'd love to have you there! https://www.skool.com/samuel-earp-online-art-school/about Happy painting, Sam
