Have you ever wanted to try oil painting but were not sure where to begin? Maybe you have experimented a little or have some drawing experience and are ready to jump in. This is a wonderful place to start. Oil painting is a very approachable medium for beginners, and all levels are welcome.
In this class, you will follow demonstrations designed to introduce the first steps of oil painting and help you build confidence from the start. You will begin with a classic monochrome underpainting, using your brush to establish lights and darks. After practicing color mixing, you will move on to a full palette and experience the joy of bringing your painting to life.
On the first day, come prepared to take notes and observe. During the course of the class, the instructor will also plan a museum field trip for all classes so you can learn and grow together while spending time with master paintings.
