Last Week of Class:

Last Class:

What we talked about: It was the last class so the lecture was short: mostly about brushwork, the need to start with a bigger brush and to change to a medium and then to a small brush later.

We talked about looking for opportunities to use mass, line, and point elements and not to rely exclusively on just one element. We talked about working thin to fat -- pu in your darks with thinner paint and to use a lot of paint (impasto) for the lights.

Student work:





























Congratulations class! You did it!
Hopefully see you in the Spring class.
