Today was the first day of a 5-day Peggi Kroll-Roberts at l'Atelier aux Couleurs in Petaluma. Peggi has a wonderful unique style for painting the figure, so I've looked forward to studying with her for some time. She's also a lot of fun. Today, we started simple: gray scale paintings. These are done, much like
When I first saw Peggi Kroll-Roberts’ paintings, I was intrigued by the seeming simplicity of the work. Here was a great painter who had achieved what most of us want: […]
Peggi taught us a couple more tools for painting. This was an interesting idea: paint a study with as few brushstrokes as possible. You design and then draw a composition that allows you to paint with as few big shapes as possible. This is a great exercise for a couple reasons: first, it's always a
Award-winning artist Peggi Kroll-Roberts was trained at Arizona State University and the Art Center College of Design in Pasadena, CA. Peggi worked as a fashion and advertising illustrator before transitioning to fine art. Her artworks are featured in the Laguna Beach Art Museum and the Pasadena Historical Museum. Using intense color and value to accentuate her subject, she moved into fine art with a bold palette, a love for small paintings and a very loose style that achieves a lot with a few very energetic brush strokes. She prefers to suggest reality rather than render it. Peggi paints animated figures, and breaks away from conventional still life with playful paintings of everyday scenes: cosmetics, the occasional coffee cup or slab of butter. Peggi's work gives us a new appreciation of daily life. Peggi's realist impressionist and expressionist styles are striking, and she has won multiple fine art and plein air awards in addition to the Blackwell prize in painting.
You must be thinking that "Peggi must be ADD". Well, I am and I embrace it. Why try to fight it? I post a lot of different work. I post my more representational work of figures and still life. And then I post my little figure drawings executed in gouache. And then of course I do some work in ceramics. I love to hand build. I make "Pencil holders"! Posted here, I've been working on a series of more graphic paintings that seem abstract at first glance but one might imagine them as collages of fragments of objects. And I haven't posted any of my watercolors yet! My husband claims, "I want it all"!

After viewing and savoring my Peggi Kroll-Roberts DVDs, I'm doing the exercises she teaches in them, starting with value studies. To keep it simple and focus on values I used colored blocks for my subject. Above is the last study of the day in which I tried to apply to color what I'd learned by doing the…
