About The Event
In this 2-session workshop we will learn to paint a still life in a single sitting. Working entirely from life from a still life setup, we will practice drawing, massing in values and applying color. We will then explore modeling the forms, applying highlights and refining. Though demonstrations and practice, students will gain further inspiration to complete paintings faster and with more confidence.
About the instructor Paul Abeleira is a graduate of Western’s Visual Arts program. He continues his own studies in still life and portraiture in workshops in New York, Wisconsin and Arizona, and has instructed artists in many facets of visual arts. Paul has taught at TAP for over 10 years and has received positive responses from his students who characterize him as a sensitive coach with a broad range of skills and knowledge. He is committed to making the learning experience worthwhile.
