PAINTING THROUGH MODERN MASTERS: Diebenkorn! In-Studio
Details
An Eight-Week In-Studio Course.
For intermediate and advanced.
“How do I move from a skill-based mode of painting into a more personal, stronger, and exploratory way of working?”
The Modern Masters course series is designed to give participants access to different ways of painting, moving from a more naturalistic and objective tradition to more Modern and subjective ways of working found in the twentieth century avant-garde.
This course will explore the relationship between the observed world, Representation, and Abstraction.
Using the motif of Still Life we will focus on the working methods of Richard Diebenkorn. The first 4 weeks we will work on paper, using a variety of mixed media.
The second 4 weeks we will work in oils, exploring and experimenting color, shaping and marking through the lens of Diebenkorn.
Painting, as a form of discovery, becomes a vehicle for inner exploration and a metaphor for living.
