In this class I will be teaching some of my painting methods I have found essential over the years. Covered topics will include board surface prep, drawing techniques and materials, importance of values and color, designing a still life and composing with light, and painting techniques.
The first class will focus on board preparation, gesso, designing your image, and how to use graphite and white charcoal to create a full gradation drawing to paint on top of.
Second class will be order of operations in painting. Tools I use and techniques.
Third class will be finishing up and final touches and discussing varnish. At the end of each class will be a critique for those who want it.
