10 min - Getting Out There with Bill Anton
New Years is a time of resolutions, so why not make yours to spend more time painting from life? The camera can (and often does) lie about color and value, so Bill Anton and Gabor emphasize the necessity of going outside to observe your surroundings first hand. We get it, painting from life is hard, and often times the outcome leaves your feeling disappointed. But if no hard work goes into producing your painting, what does that say about your level of commitment?
About the Artist: When Bill committed to painting full-time, he studied under Michael Lynch and Ned Jacob, who encouraged him to paint from life. Anton's work has been published in Southwest Art, Architectural Digest, Art of the West, Equine Images, Western Horseman and Art-Talk. He was featured on the cover of the April 2006 American Artist magazine. Corporate collections that include his work are Sears, Dupont, State Farm Insurance, Bank of America, Hewlett Packard, and Trust Company of the West. His award winning work has been displayed at the Prix de West at the National Cowboy and Western Heritage Museum, Master of the American West at The Autry Museum, The National Center for American Western Art, The Old West Museum and The National Museum of Wildlife Art. In addition, his work is in the permanent collection of the prestigious Gilcrease Museum.

16 min - What Inspires your Art with Matt Smith
In this episode, Matt and Gabor point out that it's not necessarily the scenery you are surrounded by, but the way you see, that inspires how you paint the world around you.
About the Artist: Matt Smith earned a Bachelor of Fine Arts degree in painting from Arizona State University. Somewhat frustrated with the abstract focus of the program at ASU he began looking to outside sources for inspiration and guidance. These sources included fellow artists, fine galleries and museums. This is where his "real" education began.
These days, Matt can often be found painting en Plein air from southern Arizona to the Canadian Rockies, from the California coast to the Rocky Mountains. "I appreciate traditional landscape painting and I am inspired by the pristine landscapes of the American West. I enjoy working in areas where one can travel for miles without seeing the influence of man. When I paint, I feel I've hit the mark when I've captured a balance between mood, look and feel.If you are interested in more free content make sure to visit our blog at https://tucsonartacademyonline.com/blog
