Class Description

Description

Students will learn how to paint in oils with speed and accuracy through the practice of still life and figure painting. Jodie Niss will demonstrate how to paint wet on wet, fast and in the moment, as a means for students to better their skills. The class will begin with gestural studies of still lifes and nude models, followed by longer model poses, during which students can focus on a slower and more refined painting technique.

Free locker rental and Open Studio time included
