This is an intermediate level course in painting techniques ? oils, pastels (oil and soft) acrylics, collage, mixed media and small installation work. Classes are held in the Pyramid Art Studio. Some on-site visits are organized to receive stimulus from the unique Italian sense of color, composition and decorative skills, as exemplified in their vast offering of works by the great and lesser known masters. Factors such as scale, paint handling, palette choices and sources of imagery will be focused on. Attention will be given to the formal vocabulary of painting.
