Use your new skills to experiment with still life, landscape, the human figure and portraiture. Designed for beginners and accomplished artists, this class covers important aspects of botanical painting. Different subjects each week illustrate drawing, observation, light, form, contours, surfaces and color. Discussion will build knowledge and appreciation of the subject. Add a number of sketches and color works to your portfolio by the end of the course.
Intermediate students can improve technique while expanding basic skills.
Personal discovery and experimentation are encouraged. Supply lists will be mailed. Learn color, dimension, shading and depth perception to bring your garden indoors to enjoy year-round. Working with flowers and landscapes, you can further develop the concepts of colors and paint choices, light and shadow, and composition. Have fun with backgrounds and new painting techniques.
