OIL PAINTING: ALLA PRIMA WORKSHOP

Service Description

Dive into the art of Alla Prima oil painting in this two-hour intro to oil painting workshop with our very talented, patient and lovely instructor, Hannah Rhodes of Rhodeware. Hannah will teach you the foundations of Alla Prima oil painting, which is a painting method where the artist paints directly onto the canvas in one session, applying wet paint over wet paint without letting earlier layers dry. Hannah will walk you through painting an 8"x8" canvas using vibrant colors and bold brushwork, teaching you about how to capture the natural light, form and atmosphere of a scene. The techniques learned in this class are a great foundation to plein air oil painting, in which the artist paints outdoors — and paints what they see in one or a few short sessions. If you've ever been curious about oil painting or dreamed of sitting on a bench capturing a beautiful view, this class is for you! This class is limited to eight students so each artist receives a great deal of personal and group attention throughout the session. Class registration fee includes all materials and instruction. *NOTE: This class is for adults and teens 16+
