In this 4-week class, participants will consider how Pierre Bonnard composed his painting The Table and will create their own study of Bonnard’s painting. The intention is to work towards one painting by doing various exercises or follow exercises that may be an end in themselves. From their study, students will put together their own picture of a figure in a room, focusing on the figure’s tonal and color notes. With Bonnard as your inspiration, paint and draw from life.
Week 1 – Copying the painting, outlining the big shapes, blocking in the big colors.
Week 2 – Sight-size study of the living room with table.
Week 3 -Sight-size self-portrait.
Week 4 – Painting from one of your drawings.
Students may opt to use a different Bonnard painting of a figure in a room, depending on which painting works for them.
There will be demos, homework and feedback.
