This painting workshop will explore painting with oils in the ‘no fuss’ and quick technique of Alla Prima. Participants will be guided in a relaxed environment to explore immediate mark making to capture form and tone and enjoy the instant gratification of finished works created in a single sitting. Over the week the workshop will cover an introduction to oil painting and explore the fun and expressionistic nature of the Alla prima technique. Be prepared to get messy and loosen up with some gestural painting exercises and explore the genre of still life through new objects and arrangements each day. Discover new and fresh ways of seeing compositions and still life scenes within a relaxed environment. By the end of the workshop participants will have created many finished artworks to take home.
