Go Big or Go Home! with Ed Chesnovitch

(3) Tuesdays, June 11-June 25, from 9:00- 1:00 pm.

Member $180 / Non-Member $205

In this short 3 week class for oil and acrylics, we will work on one large piece from start to finish.

• Week 1 we will go to a nearby location, absorb the beauty, sketch, record, and gather info to inspire a large format painting. Followed by indoor studio work.
• Week 2 in the studio, we will focus on how to start a painting with various underpaintings, toned grounds and notans. Understand  the important shpes and design of your image  and how to establish good bones of your painting. 
• Week 3 we will discuss the importance of  color temperature and mark making to get your painting where you need it.

Don’t be imitated by size.  Jump in and have some fun. Focus on one painting and be fearless! This is not a beginner’s class and is not formatted for watercolors.

Materials

• Bring in one large canvas, for example, 30x40, 30x30, 24x48, etc. No smaller than 24’ in either direction.
• Your normal supplies you want to work with for the first class and we’ll take it from there.
