This is an oil painting class utilizing oil paints that are water soluble. Basic information related to oil painting approaches and skills will be discussed. The instructor will demonstrate approaches and techniques related to composition, color theory, brush stroke techniques and other aspects of oil painting and other media.
The instructor 's personal goal is to inspire the students and provide a platform of skills that will enable a lifetime of artistic expression.
On the 1st day will be lecture & discussion about materials and equipment, but you may bring materials and equipment for instructor review and approval. You will not be painting on the first day. We will begin painting on day 2. Students who are successful in this class arrange for space and materials to work at home, and work throughout the week at home.
We will set up and begin painting at 1:00 pm, so it is important to arrive for class on time. We will paint for the entire time but leave 15 minutes at the end to clean brushes and equipment.
I will email you with suggestions and discussions during the week between classes. You are encouraged to email me and ask questions outside the official class time.
