Figure Painting Workshop w/ Jon
deMartin
August 2 - 6; Cost: $600
The goal of the workshop is to learn the important
stages that are crucial for the development of a
figure painting. The principles that will be reviewed
are based on 18th & 19th Century Classical European
methodologies. We will begin with sketchbook thumbnails
for the figure in composition and then progress to
a drawing either directly on a toned 24” x
18” canvas or a 24”x18” drawing
pad which will be used to transfer on canvas. Great
emphasis will be made on the correctness of the drawing
and it is recommended that the student have experience
in classical figure drawing. An open grisaille will
be made over the chalk or charcoal drawing, which
is necessary to solidify the work before painting
in color. There will be a brief introduction on color
theory to give the student a good working knowledge
of the color palette that will be used for the subsequent
painting. Ideally two to three “passings” of
color are necessary for the completion of a painting.
However, given, the restricted time frame, we will
concentrate on the correctness of the “ebauche” otherwise
known as the first painting. The first painting is
the most crucial for the successful advancement of
a finished work.
