This is a 3 day oil painting workshop designed to merge realist painting techniques with modern color and paint application. We will work from live models in long poses and learn about composition, color, drawing, and how to make the paint surface interesting. The fundamental theme will be to explore the relationships between realist
and abstract painting, in order to paint interesting paintings that will stand the test of time. All levels welcome but some experience with oil paints is preferred. We will work for 6 hours per day with a lunch break in between. Students are welcome to do several quicker sketches, or focus on 1 or 2 more detailed works. During the workshop the instructor will paint along with the group to demonstrate color mixing, revising the drawing, and application of paint to create a convincing image.
