Go Ahead! Learn to Paint in Oils Workshop: 4 Sessions

​From the Instructor:   
My challenge as a teaching/
working artist is to break down the oil painting process in a logical and, hopefully, clear progression. This process will combine introducing the basic elements such as sketching, composition, color, value, light and edges.  Your practice of the painting skills can, with a little luck, last a lifetime!
