The BASICS: materials and realities
with Artist, Tami Fuller
1-day workshop
Friday, June 5th from 11:00am-1:00pm
A simple, no fuss beginner’s primer in the basics of working with oil painting. Students will get acquainted with the materials, process of handling and basic methods, removing the intimidation of working with the medium. During the class, students will learn to manipulate and use oils to work on a first basic "lean" layer colorfield by creating a simple gradient color scape, allowing students to focus on color mixing, palette work and working with solvents without worrying about brush technique. Learn all the basics of working with oil without the intimidation of creating specific subject matter and position a beginner to explore the medium independently with confidence.
Since starting a new medium, such as oil painting, can be quite costly, this class does not require students to purchase any materials. Communal supplies (everything needed for the class) are included with the supply cost. Tools used during class, such as brushes, will remain property of the instructor. Students can then decide if they would like to pursue the medium further.

Tami Fuller is a second-generation fine fiber artist and educator. Her work integrates the traditional foundations of hand-constructed processes with modern techniques, using foreign objects and metal. She operates her own fiber arts and education company, Blubird Studio, teaching throughout WNY and into the Northeast. Ms. Fuller is an internationally published artist, exhibiting member of the Buffalo Society of Artists and a 2021 Roycroft Emerging Artist. She serves as Executive Director of the Roycrofters-at-Large, adjunct Chair of Fiber Arts for the Arts Council for Wyoming County and President of the Buffalo Society of Artists.
