Impressionist Oil Painting Classes

Location: Sacramento Fine Arts Center.

Description: These oil painting classes will emphasize working quickly and completing at least two paintings in 6 afternoons. We will be using a direct approach, which the impressionists called “Alla Prima,” or “all at once.” Your completed paintings will have a fresh, spontaneous feel. We will be working from your photos (or mine) for reference and inspiration, and not just to “copy.” You will create new, unique, beautiful works of art! Technique, composition, color and values will all be addressed, as a group and individually. This class is for all levels of painters. I will be doing several quick demos, as well as giving, frequent, constructive class critiques.

Start Time: 12:30-3:30pm

Date: Tuesday, starting October 5, 2010 for 6 weeks

Class Fee: $175. Class size limited to 12
