Catalunya, Spain - how to paint everything
Over the course of this five day workshop, we will investigate how to paint ‘everything.’ From portraiture to still life, figure painting to landscape, each day we’ll dive deep into the intricacies of a different subject and ultimately uncover a simple truth: that ‘all things are equal in the eyes of the paint.’
Each day of painting will begin with a focused demo and presentation from Andrew. The demos will cover painting the figure from a live model, painting a still life from a live set up, painting a portrait from photo reference, painting a landscape en plein air, and a final demo covering how to use all your knowledge and experience to better paint from imagination. Andrew will also be available during your own studio time for direct coaching and to answer any questions you may have along the way. Apart from all the group interactions and studio sessions, each student will have a scheduled one-on-one session with Andrew to discuss your work and the direction of your journey in art.
(Sold out) Catalunya, Spain - Reducing Realism
Through a series of seven unique sessions, we will attempt to realize and refine our ability to transcribe reality, through the filter of our imagination, into the language of paint. We will explore novel uses of color, form, and stroke; experiment with abstraction, reduction, and exaggeration under the umbrella of ‘realism.’ The course will consist of daily live demos, supervised painting sessions, one on one critiques, and intimate discussions about purpose in art, capturing social media, and the career path of the artist.
