Painting & Drawing

Painting with Knives

Start: 26 March 2010 at 6:00 p.m.
End: 28 March 2010 at 2:00 p.m.
With Paul Priestley

Come and have some fun learning the techniques for applying paint with a palette knife in both bold and subtle ways. The emphasis will be on an imaginative and creative approach using still life and the landscape around Farncombe as our starting point. We shall start with a few technical exercises before using these methods on small sample paintings. Once a certain familiarity has been established with the techniques we shall experiment with pushing the boundaries to create larger more imaginative paintings. This course is suitable for beginners and those with more experience.

Materials:
Easels and board provided. Painting materials are NOT provided, so please bring your own. This course uses acrylic /oil paint. Suggested materials: A range of palette knives of different sizes and shapes. Colours: permanent rose, lemon yellow, ultramarine, titanium white, burnt umber, yellow ochre, cadmium yellow, possibly vermillion hue, permanent green and winsor blue.
One acrylic painting pad minimum size A3, preferably 16 x 20 inches.
