Students will learn the methods of building a painting by reproducing works of traditional painters such as Velazquez, Vermeer, Sargent and Pissarro. Effective techniques of transferring the drawing, underpainting/overpainting, dead colouring, scumbling, glazing and painting alla prima will all become familiar in the course of study. Students are encouraged to work on projects in either oils or acrylics.
