Direct Still Life Painting

Still-life painting
Painting by Todd Casey

In this workshop, students will work in the Alla Prima method to paint three still-life paintings, one each day. Alla prima translates to “in the first” and is a wet-intowet painting technique.

Students are encouraged to bring their own props to create meaningful paintings. Each morning, the instructor will do a demonstration, and in the afternoon, students will work on their paintings and receive individual critiques. An emphasis on mark making, painting loosely, expressive color, and how to make a picture will be discussed. All levels are welcome.

Length: 3 days
Tuition: $600
