Painting: Light and Space


Enhance your paintings by learning how to create a sense of light and space with colour.


More details

In this course, students explore how paint can be used to create effects of light, and how various subjects create different kinds of visual space. Based around thematic projects, this course will cover how translucent layers of paint allow light to come from inside the painting, how glazes complicate space and the contrast of light, and how light operates in conjunction with hue and chroma to affect the illusion of visual depth. Subjects include photographs, still life, collage, and non-objective abstraction. Each project is contextualized through historic and contemporary examples. Students can work in either acrylic or oil paint. Suitable for all levels. TUESDAYS, JAN 7 - APR 1, 6PM - 9PM IN-PERSON
