Hi everyone. I'm going to be teaching three art classes starting in January. One in Herndon at ArtSpace and two at the Lorton Art Center. Here are the descriptions. Please contact me if you have any questions at info@vickiblum.com:
At ArtSpace Herndon
Beginning/Intermediate Oil Painting
Thursdays 7pm-10pm
Starting January 22 – March 12, 2009
(no class February 19, 2009)
Learn classical methods of painting. Work will be done from your photos or a still life set-up. This class will focus on how to begin and finish a painting. Starting with toning the canvas and drawing your subject, students move quickly into painting thick alla prima layers of light and shadow colors. This will be followed with refinements to value and color in a series of thick and thin glazes. Come ready to paint your favorite person, place or still life. Recommended for beginning and intermediate painters who want to improve the realistic appearance of their work. $187
Location: ArtSpace Classroom 1 @ 750 Center Street, Herndon VA 20170
