Oil Painting For Beginners: Part 1
With Instructor Clair F. Maier
Instructor Clair Maier, with a BA in Studio Art from Saint Vincent College, will teach basic concepts of oil painting, including prepping a canvas, setting up a palette, choosing brushes, mixing colors, working with painting mediums, creating an underpainting, layering wet and dry paint, proper brush cleaning and maintenance, and more! Class time will range from short instruction and brief exercises to sessions of working on individual projects. Clair asks students to bring 3 different photos 8x10” or larger (or a laptop/tablet) to use as references for your painting (no portraits, please, or pictures of other paintings or artwork). In class, she’ll help you select the best one to get you started successfully. Clair will also cover basic principles of color temperature, value, proportions, and shading, and help you apply them to your particular project! All materials are provided, and you’ll be given a set of oils and supplies to keep! (You may wish to purchase additional materials after the first class, but no other materials will be necessary.) Some experience in drawing is helpful, but not required. Come ready to learn and open to a new experience! Ages 14 and up. Payment is required to hold your space in the course. (We apologize for any inconvenience, but Main Exhibit Gallery & Art Center is unable to issue a refund if you cancel within 2 weeks of the class start date, unless we can fill your space. No refunds can be issued after the class has begun.) |
