Traditional Oil Painting Techniques & Best Practices

LESLIE LIENAU
Chiaroscuro, scumbling, alla prima, glazing, underpainting, impasto and grisaille are all terms referring to traditional and modern oil painting techniques and in this course, we'll study each technique, why they are used and how to implement them into our own painting practice. We will learn the best practices for painting with oils from the best oil paint brands and surfaces to paint on to the final coat of varnish. This is a hybrid course and will meet for two 3 hr sessions in March with a break for home study and will meet again in April for the final two 3 hr sessions. Students will have the option to meet online for critique and insights with Leslie between in-person sessions.
