Service Description

Instructor: Kaitlyn Coppens In this course we will cover the basics of using oil paints. From the underpainting, color theory, to the finishing varnish, we will go through all the basic knowledge you need to gain confidence painting with oils and then build your skill with practice and continuing instruction in subsequent classses. Though this is a beginner friendly paint class, basic drawing skills are needed. If you are just starting your artistic journey you should take the drawing basics course before any painting courses to give you a solid foundation to build on. You must bring your own supplies. You can choose either water soluble or regular oil paints. Water soluble is somewhat less toxic and oil paints require a solvent. If you choose regular oil paints, you can only bring non toxic & odorless solvents like gamsol into the classroom. More information regarding the choice is available at this link: https://finearttutorials.com/guide/oil-vs-water-mixable-oil-paint-a-guide/ Click here for the supply list: https://www.eclipsec3.com/_files/ugd/cfc22e_566143e6ad454ed38b1432db86d3dfee.pdf You can find all of these supplies at a Michaels store or BLICK as well.
