This course introduces students to indirect painting methods, where form, light, and atmosphere are built up gradually through a series of transparent and opaque layers of oil paint.
Students will begin with a tonal underpainting (grisaille or imprimatura) and progress through stages of glazing and scumbling to achieve luminous depth, subtle transitions, and refined form. Emphasis will be placed on value structure, edge control, and the properties of traditional mediums.
Rooted in Renaissance and Baroque painting practices, this class is ideal for students seeking a disciplined, historically grounded approach to oil painting.

This class introduces students to the essential techniques and concepts of sculpting forms in clay. Working from classical examples as reference, the course covers basic sculptural processes, including additive, subtractive, and modeling techniques, with an emphasis on understanding volume and proportion.
*We use non-toxic oil based clay for all of our sculpture classes. We re-use this clay for future classes. However, students will have the option to purchase their clay at the end of this class at cost.
