Begins Jan 10 | $430 | 10 weeks
For the first 6 weeks students will choose their subjects to paint such. For example, still-life, landscape, abstraction/imagination, or copying images from photo references. Unless there is a request for guidance, students are free to choose concepts and subject matter. For every painting there is a unique way to build, problem solve, and complete a work of art. During the painting process I will discuss fundamental aspects of design such as line quality and direction, shape relationships, compositional space, scale and placement of forms, color mixing and color relationships, the volume of visual forms, and finally value relationships. I will present ways to build and refine your work towards a satisfactory result. Composition will be emphasized. There will be a live model for the last 4 class sessions.
