Class Description

Description

What you'll learn in this landscape painting class:

Learn the "why" behind the importance of working from life... and how to use photos when working from life doesn't make sense (or isn’t possible!). We will be refining photo references as a tool, making your painting so much more than a copy of the picture. With a focus on landscape, once these tools are in your control they can be applied to any subject. This class is open to all painting media.

Class 1: Depth Cues

Class 2: Value

Class 3: Color

Class 4: Narrative, Context, and Detail

Class 5: Paint Handling and Planes

Class 6: Levels of Abstraction

Class 7: Composition

Class 8: Value Pattern

Class 9: Color Matching/Mixing

Class 10: Wrapping-up and Going Forward

Materials List:

If you already have painting materials then you are set, just bring those. If you are starting out new I would love to talk to you about what fits best. This can be at the first class or you can email me. We will discuss your experiences and interests and go from there.
