Cloud Painting - Oil

Details

What to Expect:

Cloud Painting Workshop - Oil
Immerse yourself in the vibrant world of oil painting in our 3-hour Cloud Painting workshop. Much like painting, cloud watching can be soothing and create a calm state of being. This workshop is a wonderful opportunity to learn or hone already existing oil painting skills. Join us for an enriching artistic experience where you’ll capture the essence of floating clouds with oil paint and brush on a wood panel or canvas. Working from a variety of Cannon Beach ‘cloud’ photographs, you’ll be guided with step-by-step instructions on how to achieve form and depth utilizing shading and highlight (tint) techniques. Understanding what different brush sizes, shapes, and strokes offer will go hand-in-hand with learning about the different ways to apply paint, using mediums to achieve specific effects (such as drying time), color mixing, and finishing.

Dianne Aoki - Artist Statement - Cloud Collection
