"Model" courses are based on the approach used by the traditional art schools where figure painting/drawing was considered the most important genre.
~ This approach includes thorough drawing, understanding of the structure and anatomy of the human figure, ways of measuring proportions, seeing the unique characteristics of the form, learning to see tonal values in relation to the whole rather than to the neighboring areas.
~ The principals of creating a three-dimensional illusion by using corresponding tonal values are very significant to the course. We will analyze such terms as highlight, light, shade, reflection, and cast shadow.
~ Color mixing is a very important topic of the course. The first thing in mixing the right color is seeing the color right (meaning in relation to other colors) and then finding appropriate pigments on one’s palette. Flesh tones mixing will be also addressed.
~ Studying specifics of oil paint as a material and paint application are other important topics of the course. Some painting experience required.
"Still Life" courses are based on a traditional realistic approach. Structurally the courses consist of two-three long-term assignments. Especially since the era of Cezanne the art of still life lost its label of a secondary genre. It became the true artist’s laboratory, a "model of the world" of some sort, where such important terms like composition, color, texture, material and even emotions come to play.
~ Color and color theory are the most important topics of the course. They will include complimentary colors, transformation of color in light and in shade, color harmony. Various color schemes will be used in studio installations.
~ Different painting techniques are studied on such examples as the Dutch, Chardin, and other masters of still life. Studying specifics of oil paint as a material is another important part of the course.
