DEADLINE TO SIGN UP FEBRUARY 14th!
Loose Realism: Painting the Still Life in Oils
with
SARAH SEDWICK
Paint looser, and more confidently during this three-day workshop with Oregon artist Sarah Sedwick!
Take a step-by-step approach to alla prima oil painting,
from black-and-white studies to brilliant color. Build a beautiful composition with life and movement, and get a new perspective on the still life. Instead of struggling with overworking your paintings, practice STOPPING SOONER to keep the freshness you crave in your work.
Working with a split-primary palette of six colors and white, explore how creating quick studies and using bigger brushes can loosen up your paintings. Learn the fundamentals of composition design, and walk step-by-step through Sarah’s alla prima process, creating a dynamic still life from start to finish! Sarah will demonstrate, and work with each student individually. Instruction is in oils, and acrylics are welcome - particularly Open acrylics, that stay wet longer.

Sarah Sedwick is a prolific painter of still lifes in a style she calls “Loose Realism.” Expressive brushwork, brilliant color, and dynamic compositions are her goals in both painting and teaching. Born in Cleveland, Ohio, Sarah earned a BFA in Illustration from The Maryland Institute, College of Art in 2001. Based in Oregon, she has been teaching workshops on alla prima still life and portrait around the country since 2013. She is the author of the book Dynamic Still Life for Artists, published in 2022. Sarah’s teaching philosophy is simple: the more you paint, the more you
improve - so removing the blocks that keep us from the canvas is key. Loosen up, let go of perfectionism, and watch the results unfold! www.sarahsedwick.com facebook.com/sedwickstudio instagram.com/sedwickstudio |
