Description

'PROPER' PAINTING! Of course oil paint has that reputation, deserved or not, for its many qualities. Blending with oil paint is a wonderful thing, as you will discover on this course. You can employ loose and lively brushwork, which is the key to creating engaging paintings. After introducing the materials and equipment, we will do a couple of quick studies, step by step, to loosen up and gain confidence. Following this we will paint a landscape, again step by step, working from a supplied photograph. After that you will be free to paint your own choice of landscape from supplied photos, of which there will be many.
