2 Five Day Classes
Monday-Friday

 

Still-Life - Level 1
Media: Oil
Skill Level: Beginner-Advanced

The structure of this class is lecture, demonstration, and exercises painted from the live setup. Each day will begin with a lecture on basic concepts in still life painting, including (but not limited to) design concept, composition of masses, form and cast shadows as design elements, the color of the light source and its impact on observed color, basic shapes and volumes, complex shapes based on simple components, folds and drapery, fruits and vegetables as simple shapes, brush techniques and paint application methods, direct painting and drawing, and linear perspective. Setups will be designed to provide specific lessons on each area of emphasis and lay the foundation for even more complex designs offered in Workshop-3.

Learn how to paint glass, metals, pottery, porcelain, and other surfaces, while practicing the elements of composition and design for either classical techniques or impressionist setups. A fresh fruit and vegetable fee will be collected to assure that a generous variety of shapes and colors are available for each student.

NOTE: Completion of this workshop will provide credit towards the School of Classical Oil Painting.

Landscape - Level 1
Media: Oil
Skill Level: Beginner-Advanced

The subject matter covered by the landscape is vast, so this class will limit the scope to only those features that occur on land, in spring, summer, or fall. It will cover the four major landscape masses and values, the two pervasive light sources, and the color and light theories that are peculiar to landscape. Lecture and demonstration will focus on the quick study to capture the essence of the composition, as one must learn to do when working from life, on-location.

All work in this workshop will be performed indoors, in the comfort of the air-conditioned studio, through the use of original slides by Johnnie Liliedahl, displayed on large TV screens. Emphasis will be on selecting a viewpoint, a center of interest, and designing the composition to accommodate those selections. Learn how time of day and different weather conditions change the basic landscape relationships. Aerial and linear perspective, differences in academic and impressionist concepts will be discussed, as well as tonalist and colorist approaches to the landscape.

NOTE: Completion of this workshop will provide credit towards the School of Classical Oil Painting.
