Description

The aim is to develop the class’s painting abilities with the emphasis on enjoyment through artistic exploration and experimentation. Weeks 1 and 2 will create a ‘letterbox’ view of a still life, looking at negative and positive shapes, compositional arrangements, colour and tone.

​

Weeks 3 and 4 will create a mirror image from the first study using complimentary colours, contrasts, simplification and design. There will also be a short colour study exercise.

​

Although all abilities are welcome, the class is most suited to those who paint or sketch regularly (regardless of how successfully). It is most important to have a creative approach and enjoy the challenge of presenting artwork in traditional and non-traditional styles.
