Day: Saturday & Sunday Inst: Steve Chmilar Description: Join me in the great outdoors to capture the beauty of Dominion Brook Park. On the first day of this new workshop, we will draw a scene on paper from the vantage point of our choice. On the second day, we will use oil paint to capture the same scene on canvas or panel. The benefit of drawing on the first day will be to focus on composition and measurement before adding the extra task of colour mixing on day two. We can even use the drawing from our first day as an additional reference. Follow along step by step with me or work at your own pace. Please see the supply list for suggested items. Instructor: Steve Chmilar is one of Canada’s foremost New Contemporary painters. Since his debut show at the Art Gallery of Greater Victoria in 2011, he has painted full-time by selling his work internationally to private collectors. In 2012, he won best in show at the Toronto Outdoor Art Exhibit (Canada’s largest juried exhibition) and Prix De La Meilleure Oeuvre (Prize for Best Work) Mtl en Arts in Montreal. Please view Steve’s bio in the instructors tab for more information. Location: TBD but will for sure be located in North Saanich / Sidney Please note: This class will be hosted outdoors in a public park. Please ensure proper precautions are taken when navigating public terrain. Thank you.
