introduction to oil painting

Sunday, 13 December, 18.00 - 20.30 (GMT+3)
Language: English / Turkish
Led by Gabrielle Reeves

This workshop takes place online.

During this workshop, participants will be introduced to the basics of oil painting, including colour theory and application techniques. Over the course of the workshop, participants will develop the first layers of a still life painting with individual instruction and assistance. This class is open to all levels of practitioners, whether you are new to painting or looking to expand your skills.

For this workshop we recommend water-based oil paints, available at most art stores. Water-based oil paints do not require turpentine for clean up (brushes, etc.) and are a friendlier alternative for the environment 🌱
