Getting Started with Oil Paints | An Introduction
@ The Court Street Gallery, Trowbridge
Monday 31st Mar, 18;30 - 21:30
Evening
£49
Starting out with Oils can be a daunting prospect, but with just a few basics you can unlock the potential of this rich and exciting medium.

In this beginners workshop we will be getting to grips with oil painting. You will gain understanding of the paints, surfaces and brushes, learn about colour mixing and basic application techniques, and receive step-by-step guidance in working through a range of exercises chosen to give you the skills that you need to get started.

Suitable for beginners - come and have a go!
Overview of the day
At 1:30pm we will start with welcomes, introductions and an overview of the session.

We will look at the life and work of Georgia O’Keeffe, with a particular focus on her flower series, discuss the materials that we’ll be using, including paints, mediums, brushes and canvases, before going on to under paint our canvases in preparation.

To ease you into working with oils we will work through a series of quick practical exercises covering basic skills such colour mixing and blending techniques.

11:30am (ish) - Break for a hot drink.

Once refuelled we will draw/trace our images on to our under painted canvases and get painting. I will be there to guide, support and encourage you throughout the day.

1:00pm - Lunch break. There are a variety of cafes within a short walk from the gallery or feel free to bring a packed lunch.

After lunch you will spend a relaxing afternoon finishing your painting. Hot drinks will be available as and when required.

3:45pm - We will cover how to clean brushes/work stations, before a photo opportunity to show off your newly created masterpieces.

4pm - Head home with a completed painting ready to show off to your friends and family, and hang in pride of place.
