Urban Landscapes Masterclass

Join us for a 2 days session to create Urban Landscapes with oil paint.

We will Start of with a quick oil painting tutorial +/_ 30mins.

Everyone brings a series of three pictures from an urban setting that captures there eye. Preferably a scene containing a sense of dept. A scene with a clear fore- and background. You can also use your mobile device for inspiration.

We will get to know how to apply dept to a scene in a painting, both in line, layers and colors.

Vital within oil color is a playful sense; a sense of experimentation. All these elements together will create the landscape.
