For intermediate level students and advanced beginners
Art buyers find impasto fascinating. Impasto is the process or technique of laying on paint thickly so that it stands out from a surface. In this course, we learn how to make our paintings of the human body more unique by focusing on the torso and eliminating any distractions. This impasto method of paint application will allow us to handle color that communicates volume and shows our brushwork. Impasto paintings look rich and complex, as each brushstroke casts a shadow almost like in a bas-relief. Spice up your painting experience with this easy yet challenging technique. Bring variety to your body of work and explore how by dramatically changing the composition, you can invigorate your portfolio.
This course is suitable for the students who have already acquired some experience in drawing. Please note: no prior experience with the human body is necessary. Graduates of the Essential Drawing Course are welcome. Questions? Call us: 802-505-7624
