Open Studio Weekend is almost here, and this week we talked with three of the participants in the U of L/Hite MFA building: Katherine Watts, Xuanyi (Rosamund) Wang, & Erica Lewis. Tune in to WXOX 97.1 Fm, or stream on Artxfm.com Thursday mornings at 10am to hear Keith Waits talk with artists about their work.
Our Academy-level Painting II class builds upon instruction from Drawing and Painting I, focusing on the study of portraits and still life utilizing both acrylic and oil paints. The curriculum provides opportunities for experimentation with painting on a variety of different textures and provides further knowledge of a variety of tools, including palette knives and specialty brushes. This course is a comprehensive study of the principals of composition, staging, line, pattern, value, tone, and color theories. Emphasis is placed on the creative process from concept to completed work.
