Two-Day Oil Painting Workshop with Vicki Penney-Rohner
August 1 & 2 (Saturday & Sunday), 10am – 4pm | $100/$90 VAC Members
Understanding your medium and using your tools effectively gives the results you want. If you are an intermediate or beginner, this class will give you a better command of your medium. Students will learn to mix colors, use different mediums to achieve various effects, and learn to layer color to bring depth and luminous richness to their work. Throughout the two days, students will learn to create form using values and light, and recognize, understand and apply the elements of design and composition to improve their work. The class will focus on a still life. Vicki’s emphasis is on light and color and individual attention to students to help you loosen up and get satisfying results. Students will need a small canvas, paints and brushes. A supply list is provided below.
Vicki has been teaching art for fifteen years, and her work is in the State of Hawaii’s permanent collection, has been featured in magazines and won numerous awards throughout the US. She is the Artist in Residence at the Fairmont Orchid and teaches classes there weekly.
