Taught by Alia El-Bermani, the Figure Series continues with Indirect Figure Painting. Indirect painting means you spend multiple sessions on the same painting (as opposed to direct or alla prima painting). You will learn how to successfully build a layered painting with great depth and luminosity. The benefit of using a closed grisaille underpainting, as well as advanced topics such as glazing and scumbling will be discussed. With the luxury of spending four weeks on one painting, one pose, we will focus on capturing a likeness of our model with sophisticated color and tone. Come gain confidence and accuracy in representing the figure in oils!
This Figure Series will build skills from month to month, starting with the basic fundamentals of drawing the figure in line and working our way through to painting the figure in oil. Working from the live model, you will develop an understanding of proper proportions, structure and basic anatomy of the human figure. This class will strengthen your understanding of the human form as well as strengthen your drawing and painting ability whether you are an absolute beginner or an advanced student. Class is limited to 15 students.
HERE IS THE SERIES MONTH BY MONTH:
January: Figure Drawing Fundamentals I – Line
February: Figure Drawing Fundamentals II – Value
March: Fundamentals of Figure Painting
April: Indirect Figure Painting
