The five-week course will cover the following:
CHALLENGES AND SOLUTIONS – talk about those pesky aspects of your work that you can’t seem to remedy, or perhaps find out that those issues are actually inviting you to paint a new way.

TIPS AND TRICKS FOR PERSPECTIVE AND PLACEMENT — the X, Y and Z and other ways of working the canvas!

INTRODUCING PEOPLE TO YOUR WORK — How and when and where?

CHANNELING PAINTERS THAT YOU LOVE — Work on styling your work, based inspiration. Bring a sample master work for discussion. What is inspiring you? How can you integrate that inspiration into your own creations.

TAKE ON THE NEW! This is a two-part class to finish the course wherein Andrew will guide you through painting a subject matter you have considered “too difficult”. Your choice of Media.

SUPPLIES:
Artists should bring materials and ready canvases or other substrates that they wish to use in this experimental and fun advanced studio. For the first class Andrew has suggested that you bring your regular painting supplies. Please do NOT bring CADMIUM PAINT COLOURS OR COBALT BLUE or solvents (for oil paint) with fumes because of their toxicity levels. For oil paints, linseed oil and/or baby oil is recommended.
