Painting in Oils with Patty Fogle

All the secrets to making a beautiful painting are right before your eyes in your “paintbox” as Paul Klee famously said. Therein lies THE Source of all the answers to your questions as your composition grows from an abstract empty space into a suggestion of an idea that has emotional impact first to you, and then the viewer.

You’ll design the space through preliminary drawings, so you can see how each element affects the whole in the pattern of light holding your composition together. Then you’re ready to see how color science works its magic to create an illusion of an image from a flat surface through the lively brushstrokes of your hand & emotions — your painterly handwriting.

Whatever your style or content, this class will bring it to life.
