One-on-one Private oil painting classes in Downtown Brooklyn. You will learn to paint from photos, no prior experience is needed. All supplies are included but feel free to bring your own brushes and paints if you wish. Painting process will include tracing the image onto the canvas, monochromatic underpainting, mixing colors and painting in layers, and finally glazing.
Please bring a high-resolution photo or choose one of the photos I have in stock. Canvas size options are 8"x10" or 11"x14". If you wish to paint on an artist-quality larger canvas please bring your own. Photo reference must be in the same size as your choice of canvas size as we will trace the image onto the canvas.
The one-hour class is introductory, please note students usually need at least 5 classes to learn the photorealistic painting technique well and produce a good oil painting. For large canvases it is advisable to purchase 10-20 pack class.
Group Classes: I offer lessons for up to two students at a time. Please note that each student must purchase their own class, as I do not offer a 'two-for-one' pricing option.
Please purchase your class/package before the class takes place. Kindly text me to confirm your class schedule before you come in. I teach in a shared studio space but it is usually quiet and empty, especially during the week and weekend mornings.
Purchased classes will expire 3 months from the date of purchase date if not used. If you need to take a break from your classes please kindly let me know in advance.
