Oil Painting Intermediate
Imagine being part of a community that began with cave painting and continues today, where the paints and brushes have remained the same over the centuries. This intermediate oil painting course, with renowned artist Stephen J. Krasemann, will rely on demonstrations, hands-on painting and individualized attention, and will emphasize both fundamental and specialized techniques.
Landscape compositions and their elements will be the focus. Visit Stephen's website at www.krasemannart.com for inspiration and to view his painting technique. Students should have taken Basics of Oil Painting or have knowledge of oil painting techniques prior to registering.
