ART CLASS DESCRIPTION
This course delves into the luminous world of nocturne oil painting. You’ll learn to balance values to create depth and mood, using transparent and translucent glazes to build luminous effects. The emphasis is on keeping shadows warm and lights cooler to evoke night-lit atmospheres, with a focus on nightscapes, moonscapes, and the mood of tonal imagery. We’ll work from an underpainting, employ limited palettes, and map value to guide color and composition. The class includes a couple of small study pieces to reinforce techniques and help you see progress quickly in oil. Some oil experience helps, but isn’t required. Suitable for: Open to all skill levels - beginners, improvers, returners and experienced artists Includes: 8 hrs of guidance + all materials are supplied. Just show up and start creating! Creative Mentor: Karen Furneaux Who is this Class for? Participants should have some preliminary knowledge and experience in oil painting and know its basic principles (fat over lean and working through layers) or be familiar with oil painting in Alla Prima (direct method).
