Learn to create unique and personal paintings while working from a live model. This class engages students in a studio practice that explores the technical and theoretical creation of works of art. There will be a mixed focus on portraiture and nude figure painting throughout the semester. Students will be encouraged to utilize composition, color, representational space, historical reference, and context to develop their own visual language in their work.
Classes will include slideshow presentations and individual instruction at the easel, exploring the many faces of figure painting in the current art world. Lectures and demonstrations will cover the stages of developing a painting, comparative measuring, proportion, and composition, as well as contemporary application.
Open to all levels.
