Do you have a whole bunch of photographs lying around that you would LOVE to paint but you don’t know where to start? This course is for you!
You don’t have to be an advanced artist to take this class but some painting experience would be helpful (e.g. a couple of Paint Nites).
The course will consist of six 2.5-hour sessions. In case you miss a day, each session is going to be recorded and will be available for viewing for a month after the course ends.
We will cover main topics that you need to know to paint your very own landscapes from photo references:
-
Drawing for painting basics.
-
Composition and painting design.
-
Colour theory.
-
Perspective.
-
Lights and shadows theory.
-
Depiction of common landscape elements (water bodies, trees, clouds, etc.)
-
Complete painting process, from idea to a finished piece.
-
Criteria for choosing the best photo-reference.
-
How to critique your own painting.
We will be doing a variety of exercises and complete one full painting from start to finish.
