CES 3520 - Oil Painting

Share in a long tradition of creating oil paintings! In the studio, learn the versatility of oil in Alla Prima painting techniques (of Hals, Valaquez and Manet), color theory, composition, while exploring different subjects and styles. Emphasis is placed on accessing your own creativity and on personal instruction, supported with class presentations and reviews. Some drawing experience is helpful. Please bring the following materials to the first session: oil colors- yellow, blue, and red, a bristle brush #4, canvas board or canvasette 12"x16", and ODORLESS THINNER or mineral spirits, and a small container. Please note, water soluble oils may be used in this class.*
