PAINTING: DAY AND NIGHT SCENES
Explore the light of day and night in this painting course. Students will observe historical references of paintings that focus on illustrating the different times of day. Through this course you will learn how to identify and match color schemes to reference twilight, moonlight, and sunlight. Students will learn how to apply painting techniques such as cast shadows, high contrast, glazing, manipulation of soft edges and atmospheric perspective. An emphasis on color theory, mixing colors, composition, drawing, and other important aspects of an introductory painting course will be taught and practiced each week. Visual aids will be provided to practice painting for the first 2 classes but then students are encouraged to source their own visual aids for a final painting of their choice that will span the remaining 4 classes.
