Painting the Figure: the Premixed Palette

Introduction:

Daneila Astone recently came to town and, as part of her workshop, demonstrated how to mix a wonderful gamma of skin tones from a relatively limited palette.  So here is what we will do: we will use that palette as a point of departure, work from a nude model and focus on making a painting with a palette of pre-mixed colors.

The goal is twofold:

  1. Learn how to mix a large batch of variety of tints (colors mixed with white and others) and shades (colors mixed with black and others) and put them into tubes for continued use.
  2. Employ this palette in the service of understanding skin tones, especially the importance of the half tones.

Lunedì sera

Dipingere la Figura: la Tavolozza Premiscelata

Introduzione

Recentemente Daniela Astone è stata nostra ospite per un workshop durante il quale ha dimostrato come ottenere una straordinaria gamma di incarnati partendo da una tavolozza relativamente limitata.

In questo corso prenderemo quel metodo come punto di partenza. Lavoreremo dal vero con un modello nudo e realizzeremo un dipinto utilizzando una tavolozza composta da colori preparati e premiscelati in anticipo.

Il corso si propone due obiettivi principali:

  • Imparare a preparare una vasta gamma di tinte (colori schiariti con il bianco e altre miscele) e di toni scuri (colori ottenuti con il nero e altre combinazioni), conservandoli in tubetti per un utilizzo prolungato.
  • Utilizzare questa tavolozza per approfondire la comprensione degli incarnati, con particolare attenzione al ruolo fondamentale dei mezzi toni nella costruzione della forma.

Livello: Principiante, Intermedio

Docente: Timothy Joseph Allen

Modella: Damiana

Orario: Lunedì, dalle 18:00 alle 20:00
