This class is for those who are more comfortable with drawing, but would like to start painting. We will start with using what we already know (drawing), and build progressively towards a comfortable relationship with painting. We’ll start with using an approach to drawing that uses a brush and soft charcoal, and closely mimics the issues we’ll be tackling while painting. Then we’ll move on to an open grisaille (or rub out), which involves painting with only one color. After open grisaille, we move onto closed grisaille (opaque grey), then a limited palette of four colors (black, white, red, and yellow), and finally a full palette. Anyone can bridge the gap from drawing to painting; and the transition should be fun and exciting, never intimidating or frustrating.
Supply List
You do not need to spend a lot of money on supplies for this class, these are merely suggestions. If you already have supplies that you’d like to use that aren’t listed here, just bring them in and we can go over them together. This is art. It’s supposed to be fun and creative, so please don’t get overly concerned about getting the right pencil or tube of paint. We can have fun and make beautiful art with nearly anything.
