Beginner Oil Painting
Tuesdays, 6:00 pm
January 6 – February 24 | Ages 16-99+

Class:

Be introduced to the wonderful world of oil painting! We will discuss the value of underpainting, and the difference that a color vs a monochrome underpainting can make. We will study the elements of how to choose a good composition, and will discuss seeing and painting light and shadow.

What You’ll Learn:

In a step-by-step group learning environment, students will learn new painting techniques such as monotone underpainting, mixing the correct colors on a palette, and blending and glazing techniques to help achieve a proficient finished product. Some drawing skills will be taught, but previous drawing experience would be helpful, but not required.

What You’ll Leave With:

By the end of the course you will have painted a complete oil paint of a still life or from the class reference photo, and the confidence and knowledge of working in the medium of oil painting.
