In this 8 week evening class we will explore how to best use oil paints to create alla prima portraits – starting with the very basics of working with oil paints, and good housekeeping when using oil paints at home. Each week we will introduce a new element to build your confidence working with oils – initially working in tone and then exploring colour mixing with limited palettes. We will be working with a live model and will also be referencing a mix of contemporary and traditional artists for inspiration.
This course is ideal for students who’ve not used oil paint before or who would like to gain more confidence in their practise. It will be a fun, relaxed course packed full of top tips & ideas for you to really start developing your own style. Places are limited to 10 students and pre-booking is essential.
This will be a hands on practical course where each week you will be creating portraits and developing your skills. We will be working most weeks from a clothed model. There will be basic materials available at the studio, but students are asked to bring their own brushes and paints (see below). Places will be limited to ten students. Please note, there will be no session on Mon Feb 13th due to half term.
