February 17-19, 2023
10am-5pm EST @ Townsend Atelier
instructor:  Christina Weaver

In this 3-day oil painting workshop, we will breathe life into a classic genre by encouraging change in our subjects. Working from an evolving setup is one way of bringing freshness and flexibility into the studio. One canvas will be developed over the course of the class, where painters and paintings must adapt to arrangements that are altered through both deliberate and passive means. Quick decisions and gut responses will guide our compositions as components rearrange, wither, bloom, or disappear.

This open, dynamic process will be anchored in careful observation, with emphasis on accurate drawing, shape, value structure, and color relationships. Paint application and edge quality will also be prioritized in the creation of a richly layered surface.

Each day will begin with demonstration and lecture, followed by an hour for lunch. Students will paint in the afternoon, guided by one-on-one instruction.
