This course is designed for beginners and those who have minimal or no painting experience. Students will learn the basics of handling oil paints and brushes and explore a variety of techniques (glazing, layering, impasto, alla prima, and others). We will cover the fundamentals of composition, tone, and blending colors. One-on-one and group discussions will also touch upon concepts crucial to the creative process, including critical thinking, discipline, spontaneity, metaphor, and others. Technical demonstrations will complement our studio work. The goal of this course is to give students the basic tools and ideas necessary to begin their own personal painting practice.
