Winter Class: Beginning Oil Painting (5-week series)

An exploration into the fundamentals of oil painting. Learn how to set up your palette, choose a surface, choose paint colors, and begin painting. We will discuss and practice the basics of drawing, value structure, and color mixing. In class painting will include still life and perhaps landscape painting. Choosing and cropping images will be covered, as well as painting from photographs. Each class will begin with a presentation of concepts and will consist of practice and feedback. Any level of experience is welcome. Necessary materials will be provided.
