Online Painting with Sarah Thibodeaux (2022) (location: Online)

Paint with us from your home studio!

At the start of the pandemic, I turned to this online format to offer us all a chance to paint together, to be connected, and to appreciate the beauty that surrounds us.

This class continues as a weekly conversation and a review of the weekly painting exercises and paintings in process.

This class meets weekly for 3 hours via video conference. We discuss each artist's work from the previous week and go into deeper discussions of particular painting problems and questions.

Weekly we meet and discuss any and all of the issues facing us at our easel that week. That could include any and all of the following:  cloud painting, portrait painting, still life painting, flower painting, color harmony, studio tasks such as framing and organizing your work, hard and soft edges, the best mediums and surfaces, finding the color for mid-distance trees, in depth topics in portraiture (eyes, noses, mouths, hair, etc). And lots more.  

Students are encouraged to bring to discussion the thorny problems of painting, such as how to paint glass, how to create transparency, how to make an area come forward or recede. These issues often become the basis for live instructor demonstrations or additional videos.

I hope you join us online!
