Realism Oil Painting Techniques By Nick Baxter
September 16, 2010
Hancock MA
3 hrs, $150, limit 20 people
This seminar will quickly cover the basics of oil painting technique and supplies, but will focus primarily on intermediate to advanced techniques of sharp-focus realism techniques, such as glazing, scumbling, thin layer build-up, color-matching and blending, and reproducing photographic effects. Therefore some experience is recommended, however beginners can still gain valuable insights and tips. The seminar content will partially be determined by the participants' wants and needs, but all are encouraged to bring their own painting supplies and any in-progress works for critique and instruction on taking them to the next level. Live demonstrations and exercises will be given, and all participants will receive my instructional oil painting booklet if they do not already own a copy.

Guy Aitchison: Texture
September 16, 2010
Hancock MA
Free with artists pass.One of the key things that has made Guy's tattoo and painting work stand out from the crowd is his distinct use of texture in his imagery. Done with enough convincing realism, texture effects can bring a piece of artwork to life in all kinds of exciting ways. In this free 3-hour seminar, Guy will show many examples of creative use of texture and will do a demonstration painting of a strong texture effect. He will also be handing out exercises and references for any interested parties to play around with in their spare time, and will have a Q&A session at the end of the class.
