Painting Landscapes in an Impressionist Style
2018-01-17 09:30 - 12:00
In this course on painting landscapes we will study the impressionist style of Claude Monet and the other Impressionists to learn how to use lively brushwork and bright colors to create sun-splashed landscapes. We will use both acrylic and oil on canvas or canvas boards. Students may use either acrylic or oil or a combination of both. In either medium they should bring to class pigments of the three primary colors plus colors important to landscapes such as green (sap green is the best), yellow ochre, naples yellow, cerulean and ultramarine blue, burnt sienna and burnt umber, a bright red such as cadmium, and plenty of white. In addition students will need several brushes specifically for oil and acrylic (not watercolor brushes) plus several canvases or canvas board in small to medium sizes such as 9″ x 12″, 12″ x 16″, and 16″ x 20″. Students will also need a palette for their pigments. The class will cover basics such as color and color combinations and the importance of layering pigments to create depth. By the end of the class in February students should have one or two finished paintings appropriate for framing.
