Description: |
An investigation of how to turn a drawing into a painting:
- 2 days drawing in charcoal
- 3 days painting
- 30 hours of model time
- Class size limited to 12 artists
The main focus of this workshop will be based around developing a drawing study for painting purposes, as well as developing a skin tone color sense based on an open palette and emotional responses to broken color.
Students will work to develop a clarity of vision that is essential for accurate observation, learning to focus on what is in front of them without being overwhelmed. Through this intensive observation students will explore the uniqueness of individual features and their relationship to each other as part of a coherent whole.
An emphasis will be placed on understanding the structure of the model, as well as the artist's analysis and interpretation. All questions will be answered both visually and verbally.
The majority of this workshop's instruction will be one-on-one coaching, in order to help diagnose any stumbling blocks that students may have. Students will execute preliminary drawings before moving on to full-scale oil paintings. Instruction will include discussion of practical technical information on different paint qualities, pigments, palettes, mediums, and paint supports. This will be an intensive painting practicum with a concentration on the artist as a whole. Students will be challenged to develop a strong foundation from which to explore and evolve. |
