A step-by-step guide to building a keenly-observed, yet expressive oil painting.
Working from direct observation, students will develop their knowledge of colour theory, build on palette techniques and introduce additional mediums that will support drying times and allow textures to be explored.
The still-life setup will build and change throughout this two-day workshop, making for a series of dynamic, compositional sketches and a larger, more resolved painting. Adapting to these new changes whilst painting, you’ll gain confidence with a range of materials and learn to avoid preciousness within your paintings.
