Meticulous planning allows Ginny Page to paint cohesive and dynamic compositions.
For all of my paintings, a great deal of preparation and thought is involved. The most important stage of a new painting is by no doubt the thinking period before even starting anything at all. There are so many elements to consider. What should I paint and why? How do I paint it and on what and with what? Does my subject matter evoke a special memory or emotion? Will the viewer feel the same connection or familiarity with the subject? What kind of mood do I want to create? Then comes the all-important lighting, composition, sketching, adjusting, photographing and experimenting. Is there a story to tell or not, what is it that makes me so passionate about this particular idea and do I really love it?
