Classical Oil Painting Course - Methods & Materials 17th Century
As Rembrandt once said, to start painting your must pick up your paintbrush and begin.
I take on the same philosophy with this course.
If you have wanted to start oil painting and are interested in classical oil painting oil methods and materials is the style of Rembrandt and Leonardo Da Vinci, then this is the course for you, it will give you the tools to get you started in the world of classical oil painting techniques.
Beginners are welcome , as most of the students I have seen have not done any art since they left school and are interested in this connection with the masters. If you have any drawing experience that would be of benifit, however I do assist you with the subject matter, I do want to stress though that you will be learning a process of oil painting process, this understanding the materials and the process to follow.. This is the focus the course structure is built around. Drawing needs daily practice and can not be honed on this course.
In this introductory course in classical oil painting methods and materials from the late 16th Century, you follow a process that the great masters used such as Carrivagio , Rembrandt and Leonardo. You will be shown the secrets of how they created their paintings.
In this introductory course, you will create an underpainting over the first three sessions, creating the foundation painting. You will create oil paint from traditional pigment, and learn to apply a specialist glazing technique.
In the following two sessions, you will apply colour in fine layers of oil paint.
By the end of the course, you will have understood the process and materials how classical oil paintings are created.
Additional sessions are available to purchase for students who work at a slower rate.
