Level: All – A good working knowledge of the medium of choice required
Medium: All – instructor demonstrations will be in oil and gouache

Delve into the complex subject matter of the urban cityscape.  Don’t shy away from these very interesting motifs with their deep shadows and complex forms. This subject matter lends itself to interpretation and abstraction and can be so fun to use as painting inspiration. Topics to be included:

• Simplification
• Thinking Abstractly
• Sighting Angles and applying basic perspective simply
• Choosing subject matter and knowing what to omit

There will be plenty of individual instruction and feedback as well as several demos and extra content.
