This two-day workshop is suitable for complete beginners and those with more experience and is especially designed for those who wish to use colour more expressively, even dangerously, than you have dared to do so hitherto.
Workshop Details:
Impressionism is continuing to be a very popular style of painting even though, as a movement it was short lived. Many artists, who were influenced by the style moved onwards and other movements like Post-Impressionism, Neo-Impressionism, Fauvism, Expressionism and even Abstraction were soon to follow. This is a practical class but will also be interspersed with short slide shows to explain all these movements.
We will start the workshop by copying an Impressionist painting, which will be followed by working from a photograph of a landscape in that style. We will then discuss how each one of you wish to develop that landscape into one or more of those new, developing and exciting styles of painting.
Every part of the day will be taught in a structured and step by step manner.
Skills & Techniques Covered
Materials
Materials are not included in your booking fee. The acrylic paints, palettes, brushes and painting surfaces will be provided by the tutor. The approximate cost of these will be £5, payable to the tutor during the course.
