Hi All! I'm super excited to announce that I'm offering a figure painting workshop in New York in March! We'll be using the famous limited palette that Anders Zorn used, consisting of only white, black, red and yellow ochre. This offers a surprisingly full range of colors as well as providing great color harmony. I hope you can join us!
Contemporary Figure Painting Using Classical Techniques
Limited
to 10 participants!
Location: 231 Maujer Street, 1st
Floor, Brooklyn
Dates: March 20th from 6pm to 10pm, March 21st and 22nd
from 10am to 4pm, 2015
$300 plus model fees
Learn
a foundation of traditional techniques that can be used to develop your own
personal style.
This
three-day figure painting workshop is a unique opportunity for students of all
levels to learn the process of painting the figure in oils using a limited palette.
The
course will center on the experience of painting from a live model and there
will be a single, sustained pose throughout the workshop. Participants will
learn how to achieve a better likeness as well as how to paint convincing flesh
tones. Each day will include a painting demonstration, discussion and individual
instruction at the easel.
The
beginner will learn fundamental principles such as how to mix colors and render
form modeling. The more advanced student will discover how to take their work
to the next level and achieve the finish that they desire. These tips can be applied to all future work
and improve any painting of any subject.
Discussions
and handouts will cover the stages to developing a painting, comparative
measuring, proportion and structure of the face and body, as well as glazing,
value, edges, composition, light, and modeling with color temperature.
