In this Masterclass we will carefully explore the classic method of Alla-Prima with an emphasis on modeling and finish.
Day 1 – A three-hour demonstration will be given, where students can watch the painting process, and hear the thought process which is involved to create a figurative work of art, quickly and with precision.
Day 1 – The latter portion of the first day will be devoted to creating an underpainting in one colour, focusing on composition, tonal-execution, anatomy and technique.
Day 2 – Will focus on an Alla-Prima painting approach which will allow students to compose a figurative painting . Majority of our focus will be placed around values in the painting. Using the set with a model, we will try to recognize and interpret the value relations along with the temperature aspect. With alla-prima approach we will try to accomplish the unfinished and loose stage of the painting in to a finished statement.
