Still Life Painting Course

Description:
In this course we will study the art of still life painting. Students will learn about composition and how to stage a cluster of objects to create a successful still life arrangement. We will cover a number of topics such as edges, underpaintings and opacity versus transparency. Students will complete a drawing, grisaille and successive color passes to bring their piece to a finish. There will be class discussions, demos and personalized critiques.

Prerequisites: Beginning & Intermediate Oil

Supplies: You can bring whatever colors you’re most comfortable using. All paints should be professional quality and not student grade. Paint brands to consider are Gamblin, Michael Harding, Old Holland, Windsor & Newton, Williamsburg, Rublev or Holbien.

Other Supplies:

Sable or Synthetic Filbert Brushes in an assortment of Sizes, such as 0, 2, 4 & 6

(The Rosemary brand of brushes are ideal. Da Vinci or Windsor & Newton are good too. Just make sure they're professional grade.)

Palette Knife

Bar of unscented Ivory soap for brush cleaning

Gamsol Odorless Mineral Spirits & Air Tight Container

Cold Pressed Linseed Oil & Small Container

Blue Paper Towels or Paint Rags

Palette (Wood or glass is best. “New Wave” makes great pallettes)

You can bring whatever supports you’re most comfortable painting on. I’d recommend having one 8” x 10” or 9” x 12” canvas and one 18” x 24.” These can be panels made of wood or aluminum or stretched canvas. All surfaces should either be oil primed or sealed with 3 coats of acrylic gesso. All surfaces should be free of texture and sanded to a smooth finish.

* The larger canvas size may change depending on your still life setup.
