Participants will be guided through the process of painting from initial drawing and sketching techniques through to the completion of an accomplished painting. You will be encouraged to create drawings and sketches to improve drawing technique and establish composition, then progress into sketching in acrylic and oils in order to build up confidence and become familiar with handling paint. Basic colour theory, mixing techniques and styles of paint application will be provided. Guidance and advice will be given on layering, glazes and additional paint mediums.You will then begin your painting and will be free to spend time on one in-depth painting or two or three more experimental pieces.
The aim of the Life Drawing & Painting Summer School is for each participant to have completed competent drawings and an accomplished painting by the end of the week.
All basic materials are included in the course fee- including acrylic and oil paints, brushes, palettes, sketching equipment and painting paper. If you specifically want to paint on canvas its fine to provide your own.
