In this course we will study the art of still life painting. Students will learn about composition and how to stage a cluster of objects to create a successful still life arrangement. We will cover a number of topics such as edges, underpaintings and opacity versus transparency. Students will complete a drawing, grisaille and successive color passes to bring their piece to a finish. There will be class discussions, demos and personalized critiques.
