Our perception of the visual world is dependent on light. In order to learn to paint life convincingly, one must learn how to translate into paint the light that falls upon the things we see. This workshop will focus on painting directly from life and realizing the visual effect early in the painting process, avoiding preliminary drawing. This is to keep interest and energy throughout the process and to convey a sense of life and joy in the painting. Students will explore the use of color, value, paint quality, edges, and brushstroke in oil paint. There will be a demonstration each morning and students will design their still life set ups from the objects, fruit and flowers provided. Students are welcome to bring some of their own objects if they choose. This class is appropriate for all levels. Students bring their own painting materials. A supply list will be provided.
Submission Deadline: Jul 16, 2025 5:00 PM
