Beginner
Service Description
PLEASE NOTE: This is a three-session course, on FRIDAYS, May 9th, 16th, and 23rd, 5:00 to 8:00 pm.. Please ONLY SIGN UP for the class HERE ON THE FIRST SESSION, and we will add you to all three sessions. OVERVIEW: Learn new techniques with oil pastels. We will use layering, under painting, and scraping down (also called sgraffio). We will also be using heavy pressure blending. Let's have some fun with these techniques and create your new beautiful masterpiece, in oil pastels. We'll be using a watercolor wash to finish our paintings. We will practice techniques first and then spend the rest of our time working on one finished painting. Additional Open Studio time is available to students (Wed 12 to 4, Sat 12 to 4) while actively enrolled in class, and up to 7 days following end of class at no additional charge. After that, a nominal $10/day/student will be charged, plus any materials. AGE MINIMUM: 16 years (All minors must be accompanied by an adult.) PRICE INCLUDES: All supplies will be furnished. Picture ideas and other resource materials will be available at the studio. STUDENTS SHOULD BRING: A protective cover-up or use a studio apron; an open mind; and a willingness to try new ideas. If you already own oil pastels and have favorite colors, you can certainly bring them with you. If you have a photo or picture you would like to adapt and put your spin on, by all means bring it to class.
