Posted on 03/08/2019 by Daniela Balmaverde

Yesterday I have finished to teach two lovely weeks of intensive painting at the Crescent Arts Centre.

Below are images of few of the paintings that students worked in acrylic, oil, watercolour and ink. We have been experimenting with gold foil, chalk paint, pouring acrylic, contour relief and various other techniques. We even painted on glass and furnitures! I will now enjoy some rest before the September classes!

Last week we could practice portrait painting with life models, everyone enjoyed the challenge and learnt about proportions!

This week we selected a subject less daunting and practiced flicking acrylic and watercolour while painting a goose and a dog splashing water.

Below there are some quick demonstrations done in the classes.

Painting Classes 1st – 10th June

In the past few weeks we practiced various still life and figure painting. As models we painted flowers, strawberries and various objects. Beside this we got inspired as well by the images of two pop – culture icons: Bob Marley and James Dean. Below there are the examples in acrylic and watercolour.
