During the week of the Heart's Festival (Feb. 10 to 16) instructor Wayne Power (once confirmed) will tie a participants gallery from noon to 4 pm on the Wednesday, Thursday and Friday into the theme of the Roaring Twenties
since painting copies of B & W photographs, ink drawings, sketches, etc. was popular in the early 19th century. “ Hand-colouring remained the easiest and most effective method to produce full-colour photographic images until the mid-20th century when American Kodak introduced Kodachrome colour film.” “ Between 1915 and 1925 hand-coloured photographs were popular among the middle classes in the United States, Canada, Bermuda and the Bahamas as affordable and stylish wedding gifts, shower gifts, holiday gifts, friendship gifts, and vacation souvenirs. With the start of the Great Depression in 1929, and the subsequent decrease in the numbers of the middle class, sales of hand-coloured photographs sharply diminished.” ...from Wikipedia |

SO YOU WANT TO PAINT IN OILS!
This workshop is perfect for the beginner. They will learn how to select a colour palette for the painting, they will learn how to mix colour, and they will learn how to apply the paint to the surface. We will |
|
set up a simple Still Life and take a photo of it to refer to when we are painting. Then we will start with a drawing and get that right. The school of thought out ‘there’ says that if the drawing isn’t right, the painting won’t be right either. We will then start the painting, just blocking in our base colours at first. We will then move on to working on value and temperature, but keeping it simple and understandable. Finally we will add in the light and we will be amazed at how it all came together!
This is a four week course, starting on Feb 18 to March 10, Tuesdays 12.30 – 3.30 pm, at the Little Schoolhouse. |
