Painting the Night with Gavin Glakas:
Get the Lights to ‘Glow’!
Gavin will break down exactly how he gets the lights to glow and feel so inviting. He has an approach to pushing and experimenting with vibrant, exciting color that is logical and understandable. And most importantly, it’s easy to actually use in your paintings.
‘Suggest’ Architectural Details
Gavin has a method that relies on the brain of the viewer to mentally complete some details in his paintings. He has perfected exactly how to do this so his work is believable. He even shows how you can exaggerate some elements, minimize others, and distort object shapes, all while enhancing the realism you create and the story you are telling.
Project Materials and Tools
Every great artist approaches this differently, and Gavin has homed in on two critical steps and three questions you MUST ask yourself about color every single time your brush touches paint. This one chapter alone could revolutionize your approach and your results.
Initial Sketch
This step has a secret built in that very few artists know. In fact, this is one of the elements of a great painting that separates the hordes of enthusiasts from the truly professional career artists. Gavin will share one specific tool that will help your sketches lead to repeatable realism. Once you know this, you’ll have a formula that will make every one of your paintings stand out.
Block in Color
Gavin’s approach is to interpret the color he is seeing in a photo. Here again, Gavin has built structure around this skill of interpretation. He talks you through exactly how to choose the color, how much of it to use, and how to block it in so you are building the right feeling into your painting. You’ll even learn Gavin’s shorthand technique for adding interest to large areas of color.
Details and Focal Point
After blocking in the color, the smaller shapes and specific details are added. Choosing the focal point is not an obvious task. Gavin shows you how he makes this decision. Then he shares how the balance of sharp and soft edges creates an effect that is soothing and inviting.
Secondary Details
If you’re like most artists who want the light to glow, you may be surprised to learn that Gavin puts this technique in the category of “secondary detail” in his paintings. Using a specific point of view, he’ll show you this powerful secret.
Foreground Details
The textures in the foreground add authenticity and realism to your painting. Some of the details require brush techniques and skills Gavin will share with you in this critical chapter. When done right, these details really “sell” the painting and help to tell the story.
Cleanup
Every painting has mistakes. And many of them are completely fine. After all, life is imperfect. But sometimes you have to get in there and really fix something. Gavin has methods for adding very small details and removing some unwanted details that can change the mistakes into elements that make the painting stand out.

We do not wish to indicate that you, or anyone, can skip the joy of practice and the challenges of getting better.
