Description
You want to paint representationally, but with an expressionistic flair...
In this course we will reinfore essential painting techniques that will help develop your creative expression through a looser style. we will use recognizable subject mater: still life, tablescapes, portraits, lasndscapes and interiors. Painting from photos and life, we will engage in skills to further understand composition, color mixing, value, and brushwork. Structure of the course includes demos, quick exercises, assignments that push your work to a new level, and critiques that are serious, yet informal.
