Forrest Williams Painting the Figure July 6 to July 11, 2025 Time 9 am - 12 pm Discipline: Painting Model Fee: $40.00 Open To All On-site Housing NOT Available - Off-site Housing Options
Register for this Workshop

We will paint each day from the live model. Students will create a basic palette from direct observation of the model, using oil paint and working on either canvas or panel (your choice). Students will receive individual instruction as they develop two figurative paintings over the course of the week. We will emphasize the basic forms of the figure in space as well as color, value, and light and shadow.

All students should arrive with two pre-tinted (and dry) canvases or panels, which will provide a ready-made ground upon which to build their paintings.
