Join me on Zoom for a live workshop as we learn the basic techniques of painting a model with oils, and delve into color theory especially related to bay and chestnut coats. The workshop is limited in size to keep the class size small and allow for individual coaching. We will be working together to complete a bay or chestnut coat color of your choice, which will then be ready for your acrylic detailing in your own time.
These intro sessions are suitable for any experience level, from total beginner (I promise) to experienced oil painter! Sessions are always recorded for watching in your own time if you are unable to join live any of the weeks.
