Painting from life with oils!

 Steve's students spent 4 hours on October 8 painting from life! The beauty of a still life is that it is real, 3 dimensional and a challenge to those used to painting from photos.
The paintings with the coffee cup are a few examples of what our more experienced students created and they were ecstatic with their results!

 This landscape was a quick oil study created in the final 45 minutes of the class!

Of course the fancy French name is "plein air" painting (plane air) which is "from life" and for the artist new to this time honored technique, the feeling of accomplishment is priceless!

The "old Porch" in oils!

Oil Painting Class!

October 8th will be a unique class for all of those who have asked us to show them how to paint in oils!

Steve will show you how to work on a simple still life (from life!) and a landscape at our Franklinton Studio. This special 4 hour class is the same investment as if you purchased 2 of our 2 hour ones at $45.00 so if oils are what you want to know then this class is for you!

Please bring whatever oils you may have (most of our inquiries have been because they DO have the supplies!) but we will have  supplies as well!
