Still Life, Flowers, Foliage, Fruit
Explore oil painting through the classic tradition of the still life. Drawing inspiration from floral arrangements and seasonal fruit, this five-week course guides students through the core techniques of the medium — composition, color mixing, layering and glazing, and the study of light and shadow.
Each week builds on the last through live teacher demonstrations and take-home reference handouts. Rather than completing multiple small exercises, students will develop a single painting from initial sketch to finished piece — a process that builds patience, close observation, and real confidence with the medium.
All skill levels are welcomed, whether you're picking up a brush for the first time or returning to painting after a break.
