MULTI-LEVEL PAINTING
(ACRYLIC AND OIL PAINT)
All levels
Time:
Thursday
9 am to Noon
Period:
September 4 through December 11
This is a hands-on class that explores painting through practical applications and experiences that relate line, form, texture, and color, while also investigating how these visual relationships relate to the artist’s intentions and the meaning of the work. The projects will have some flexibility in order to accommodate both beginners and experienced painters. Students who want this class to have an independent study structure will be accommodated. An assigned project structure is suggested for beginning painters. Visual aides will be used throughout the class to reference the work of other artists. These aides will help clarify topics addressed in class or in an individual’s work. The instructor will help each student with individual problem solving, along with brief lectures and critiques for the class as a group. This class may spend a couple weeks working from a figure model.
