In this class we explore toeing the line between abstract (i.e., a style of painting with no recognizable subject) and still life styles of painting. Using a a robust color palette, advanced layering techniques and palette knife application, we'll create a beautiful, energetic yet soft painting on a 24" x 36" canvas. This class is for my more advanced students, or those students that have been painting with me for a while.
The supply list can be found in the supply list collection of your subscription library. All supplies are linked to my preferred suppliers, for easy online shopping.
Feel free to use comparable items that you have on hand, or through your preferred art supplier, but do try to stick to the suggested paint brand and color in order to achieve the desired color palette.
