Beginning Oil Painting

This class focuses on the fundamental techniques of painting with oil-based paint. Designed for those with a broad range of painting experience, the class will develop both beginning and continuing-level students’ skills using color, composition, and creativity. The subject matter will range from still-lifes to old master studies and photography. Specifically, students will explore techniques from the basic understanding of “fat over lean” to imprimatura, grisaille, impasto, and alla prima. Instructor: Woody Cornwell
