Description
"This is an amazing course.This course has filled in all the gaps of knowledge that we know exist but don't know where or how to find the answers. This is THE foundational course we have all wanted and searched for." - Josh F."I am using this as an addition to a University course and find that this is on par technically" - Wendy J."It is the best course I have ever taken. All the questions regarding painting have been presented." - AnnaThis is an extremely comprehensive 5-hour long online painting class with a focus on the construction of an oil painting and the process of layering paint rather than actual brushwork and design. To truly master oil painting, it's important to have a strong foundation; to thoroughly understand your materials and their proper usage. You have to know how to build a sound substructure or base, and then apply the paints in such a way as to ensure decades of life for the painting.In this comprehensive course, students are taken step-by-step through topics such as supports, sizing, grounds, an imprimatura, the underdrawing, the underpainting, upper layers of paint, and varnish. Each layer is explained thoroughly and clearly, and then followed up with related demonstrations so that students can follow along.The goal is for:Students to come away with a clear understanding of oil painting materials and how to build a stable painting; To help those who felt intimidated by oil painting to feel that it's approachable;Experienced painters who have gaps in their knowledge to gain a more thorough understanding.Includes over 40 student resources.
