Still Life Painting with a Limited Palette (All Levels)
Theme for the Month: Still Life Practice
This month is dedicated to still life painting, with the structure flexible to fit what you need most—one painting per week, a couple of longer studies, or one sustained piece over the five weeks. The focus is steady practice and strengthening your fundamentals.
Still life painting is an essential practice for mastering the techniques that form the foundation of all painting disciplines. In this 5-week class, we will explore composition, color harmony, and techniques for capturing the texture and quality of objects. We’ll focus on the four key aspects of painting: Proportion, Value, Color, and Edge. Using a carefully selected primary palette of seven colors, we will refine our understanding of color relationships and theory. Through technical exercises and the completion of two paintings, we will sharpen our observation skills and deepen our ability to translate what we see onto the canvas.
Bring 1–5 objects that interest you—something you’ve always wanted to paint! This class is designed for both beginners and experienced painters looking to strengthen their skills and artistic vision. Materials List
