DESCRIPTION
Here's a creative and fun workshop devoted to exploring oil painting — with both a paint knife and brush — while digging deep into color theory and color mixing. We'll spread it on, scrape it off, mix it up and stay open to surprises in this toxic-fume-free class with veteran teaching artist Anne Pfeiffer.
After warm-up color mixing and paint handling exercises, Anne will provide a demo and explanation for each step, without limiting your own creative decisions. No two paintings will look alike, but everyone will leave the workshop with a finished 12" x 12" painting on cradled board, ready to display.
SUPPLY INFORMATION
Paint, brushes, canvas, tape, palette paper, and palette knives are provided.
COURSE DETAILS
After registration, course details are available via the Northwind Art School learning portal, including course syllabus and supply information. Learn more
