About this event
It is the responsibility of the painter to master color and thoroughly comprehend color relationships (Hue, Value and Chroma). Through poster studies of masterworks students will learn to simplify entire paintings to the essence of their color information. The master copies will vary between Figure, Portrait, Landscape and Still-life. There will be an opportunity to talk about flesh tones, atmospheric perspective, light and form. Once this skill has been refined, students can apply this simplification to poster studies of real life subjects. Artists will be given access to each week’s demo video a week before each corresponding live class session. The pre-recorded demo will provide techniques and instruction for each week’s assignment. Students will email in the assignment before the corresponding live class. During the class the instructor will provide individual critiques and lead a group discussion. Artists may also ask questions about the next week’s assignment. Please note: there is an assignment due the first live class session.
