Description
Alla prima is an Italian phrase that means ‘at first attempt’. It refers to a wet-on-wet approach whereby wet paint is applied to previous layers of still-wet paint, often in a single sitting. In this one-time workshop, participants will be introduced to the basics of oil painting and will be instructed on how to identify important values, begin with a thin underpainting, and apply thick colors on a top layer. Basic drawing and color mixing skills are recommended. Ages 16+.
