Using a limited palette of mainly transparent paints, students will learn to understand light sources, the shadows they create and how they affect the composition, mood and luminosity of your paintings. Lynn will provide reference materials, handouts, and lots of personal attention. Supplies you'll need: PAPER: Good quality paper is essential. I recommend Arches 140lb cold pressed. PAINT: Alizarin Crimson, Thalo Blue (also called pthalo blue or Windsor Blue, green shade), Cadmium Yellow (light or pale), Thalo green (any brand except Cottman), Optional colors (nice to have, but not required): Opera, Cadmium red BRUSHES & PALETTE: Whatever you are currently painting with should be fine, however I recommend at least the following: BRUSHES: round, #12 or 14 round, #3 or 4 PALETTE: John Pike or similar is best. OTHER SUPPLIES: A number 2 pencil, straight edge, white vinyl eraser, masking tape (optional), a container for water, paper towels and a hair dryer (if you have one), masking fluid (optional)* * if you use masking fluid, bring a rigger or script brush |
