In the BAGSA Studio, Painting 1:  Drawing on the Masters: Basic Colour Theory & Mixing (2 day workshop)

Learn to draw precisely from an image and to mix and match colours on the masterpiece of your choice. This is the 5th in my series but, as with all the classes, it isn't necessary to have taken the others in order to benefit from this one. In this class you will choose a section of a laminated art card of a famous painting. You will systematically transfer it to 8"x10" manilla paper using classic drawing methods. We will then do some basic colour theory and a colour exercise using guache block paints. You'll be surprised what a nice medium it is when it is used correctly! Then you will paint your "forgery"! I have many examples of student work to impress you and give you confidence. You will surprise yourself. I was often impressed at the ambitious choices students made and the awesome results.
