Foundational Oil Painting Class
“Oil Painting in a Day: Learn the Alla Prima Approach”
Curious about oil painting but don’t have weeks to commit? This focused 1-day, 6-hour workshop is your perfect entry point. You’ll learn how to work confidently with oil paints, understand essential materials and mixing techniques, and complete a small painting using the alla prima (direct) method—all in one immersive session. Through guided demonstrations and hands-on practice, you’ll build a solid foundation in color theory, values, and brush handling. We’ll spend extra time on mixing colors and understanding paint behavior so you can paint with confidence and clarity. Whether you're new to oils or need a structured refresher, you’ll leave with practical skills, a finished painting, and the inspiration to keep going.
