The Oil Painting Workshop teaches the fundamental of the Classical Realist technique.
You will develop knowledge and confidence in using the best tools and materials, paint mixing, 
color theory and the steps that take the student from the initial sketch through 
each type of paint layering to the final highlights. 
The Oil Painting Workshop is designed to give students the knowledge and confidence 
to become comfortable and creative in using the magnificent medium of Oil Paint
with methods and materials used by Classical Masters.
Painting Demonstrations and individual instruction and practice in each class 
give each student new and complete insights for using the basic primary color pallette, 
subject development from thin wash to thick impasto,
mixing accurate colors in the correct value and tone, 
how and when to use paint mediums and the fine art of glazing.

Students do not need to bring painting materials to the first class. Just a Notebook, Questions and a Desire to Create and Explore.

The first class session will cover the Supply List of Materials and Tools and a Demonstration introducing what will be covered in the second class.
