SEE EVENT DETAILS
at San Francisco Art Institute (SFAI) - closed (see times)
INTRODUCTION TO OIL PAINTING ON CANVASAlice Gould10 sessions >> Wednesdays, June 7-August 96:30-9:30 pm | Studio 115 | $480
No prerequisite.
Supportive demonstrations will introduce basic tools and methods for creating oil paintings on canvas. In-class assignments will include still life, landscape, portrait, and abstraction. We will investigate the use of mediums and solvents, and discuss color, style, scale, and intent. Homework practice and gentle critiques will reinforce learning as you gain confidence in your painting abilities and artistic voice in this medium. ___
Alice Gould received a BFA from the Rhode Island School of Design and an MFA from the Nova Scotia College or Art and Design, both in the field of Painting. She moved to San Francisco after attending RISD and returned again after grad school, participating in shows at Adobe Books and other local venues as a member of the vital community of artists in the Mission District. Adventure and wilderness exploration have guided her from city to country to wilderness, and back again. Nature informs her work: large oil canvases and spirited gouache works-on-paper are homages to life forces, weather, plant dynamism, and paint itself. She now lives in Oakland.http://portfolios.risd.edu/alicegould
