Learn how to create an oil painting from start to finish in each class. Begin with a toned canvas and tonal sketch, then with opaque paint, develop your finished work. Demonstrations on brush technique for soft edges, hard edges, blending and applying paint with a palette knife will be given. Composing a dynamic painting, varying your brush strokes and directions to describe your subject will also lead to a more compelling finished work. We will practice working from photos (iPads and iPhones recommended) and from basic still life, and a live portrait model in the final class.
