Matteo will introduce students to the fundamentals of 3 dimensonal illusion through the use of shape, value, and edges. Once we have an understanding of these fundamentals we will transition to acrylic or oil paint.
Students will learn two different techniques:
  • Indirect method we will draw from a photo reference and transfer our drawing to the canvas to then work in black and white establishing our values. We will then add color by glazing on top of this underpainting
  • Alla prima will teach students to work directly from a photo reference to see and design our light and dark shapes.
