Intro to Oil Painting/Color Mixing: Harwood Art Center
Albuquerque
w/ Michelle Chrisman
2-day workshop on Sat & Sun, December 3rd. & 4th. from 10am-5pm
Hello Painters!
From Michelle:
"I hope that you can attend this 2-day workshop at the Harwood Art Center in Albuquerque on Saturday & Sunday, December 3rd. & 4th. from 10am-5pm! If you have never tried OIL PAINTING before or already oil paint and would like to get much better and faster at it and learn all kinds of very helpful new things, please attend this workshop!
Increase your skills in creating clean color, intentionally beautiful grays, the different effects of using Transparent vs Opaque paints; how to make any color either warm (comes forward) or cool (recedes back) & how to get all you can from a limited palette and the great fun in painting with a FULL PALETTE!!!!! We will have several small still lifes of simple objects from which to work from. If you have never painted with a palette knife, this is your chance! Whether you choose to paint with a brush or palette knife (or both), I will show you that the ONLY really efficient way to mix oil paint is with a palette knife, saving tons of time with cleaner results. Also expand your knowledge of painting mediums. This 2-day workshop will be your breakthrough to taking your oil painting to a higher level just in time for your New Year's painting resolutions!!!
Please see the attached flyer and feel free to email me -mailto:michellechrisman78@gmail.com- with any questions that you may have.
All levels of painter are welcome.
I hope to see you soon to paint in the lovely, newly renovated, large dining room at the Historic Harwood Art Center in downtown Albuquerque! "
