Landscape Painting with Oil and Cold Wax
This workshop is about the Landscape as a sensory experience. Interpretation of the visual through the use of oil paint, cold wax and mineral pigments expose the truth in nature via abstracted and figurative painting. Techniques of working with cold wax along with ways of using oil paint and mineral pigments provide you with the foundation of working with these materials. There will be discussion on composition and creating depth and space within a painting to overcome the limits imposed by working on a 2 dimensional surface. This workshop covers glazing, pouring and building texture as part of study of the landscape relating to painting materials taking their natural state. Inspiration comes from the surrounding landscape via plein air studies which will then be developed further in the studio.
This Workshop takes place from the 9th - 17th of August 2020. The cost is $1,750 which includes tuition, shared cottage with private bedroom for 8 nights, lunch/dinner/dessert/tea/coffee, collection/delivery to the bus/train stations in Ballina, full use of the Ballinglen Library & facilities 24/7.
