Oil Painting: An Extended Introduction
Lifelong Learning

Join a local artist for a deep dive into the nuances and beauty of oil painting! If you have little to no experience with oil paint, or if you're looking for a refresher, this class is for you. We'll break down the entire process of painting with oil and learn concepts such as color theory, composition, value, and art history as it applies to your process. You'll also learn what materials are needed and how to get set up. You'll watch demonstrations of the techniques used to apply paint, then put those techniques into practice via small studies. Our exercises will become more complex each week, culminating with your choice of painting project to be completed by the end of the course. You'll learn via instructor demonstration, individual attention with feedback and instruction, and a positive atmosphere that promotes self-growth.
