Techniques of the Masters: Oil Painting (Grades 4-12)

Oil Painting is meant to introduce students to water-based oils, focusing on their own higher level rendering and thinking with this specific medium. Students will fully commit their focus to water-based oil techniques, and lessons, while being expected to make more detailed art pieces overall. Unlike Multimedia Techniques where students use many different materials, students in this class will work continuously with water-based oils throughout. Students in this class will independently guide their own education, and skills by developing/discovering their own visual style and passions. Projects will include lessons on traditional art, fundamentals, and art history. Student art must always be personalized in themes as a standard, but the execution of visuals must consistently show understating and growth of the medium. All art pieces are expected to look as fully rendered as students can handle, aiming towards a professional finished product. Instructors will make sure to always encourage students to showcase efficient use of Color Theory, Value, Rendering, and Concept Development.

Keywords:

• Warm vs. Cool Colors, Neutral vs. Saturated Colors, Transparent vs. Opaque Paint, Wet on Wet paint, Motion & Control, Sharpness vs. Softness, Blending and Layering, Underpainting, Color theory, Rendering.

Materials:

• Water based oils, graphite pencils, linseed oil, brush cleaner, iPads and Procreate, canvases, paper palettes.

Goals:

• Students will learn how to master mixing & layering water mixable oils to create fully rendered, and colorful finished paintings. Students will understand the different strengths between color pigments, how they blend, and how to layer them. Attention to brush-use, quality, size, and shape variety will help develop stylistic brush strokes that give student art more unique characteristics. Students will gain a solid foundation for creating more professional and detailed paintings that will aid in their creative paintings for the future.

油画课旨在向学生介绍水基油，重点在于指导学生使用该特定介质进行的更高级别的渲染和思考。学生将全神贯注于水基石油技术和课程，同时期望整体上制作更详细的艺术品。与多媒体技术中学生使用许多不同的材料不同，本课中的学生将在整个过程中持续使用水基油。班上的学生将通过发展/发现自己的视觉风格和激情来独立地完成自己的作品。课程将包括传统艺术，基础知识和艺术史。必须始终以学生艺术为主题进行个性化设置，但视觉效果的执行必须始终显示媒体的运用。期望所有艺术作品看起来都像学生可以处理的那样完全渲染，以达到专业成品的目的。讲师将确保始终鼓励学生展示对色彩理论，价值，渲染和概念发展的有效利用。
