Painting animals; make a painting of your favorite animal

Thursday from 19:30-22:00 h

Teacher
Maurice Braspenning
Painting by Maurice Braspenning

For whom
All levels welcome.

Content
In this course we work on one or more paintings of your favorite animal.

Man has been painting animals since time immemorial. There is something magical about animals and sometimes we forget that we are animals ourselves. You choose an animal you want to draw, a portrait or an animal in nature. This could be your pet or an animal you've never seen and would like to capture.

Based on the photo('s) you bring with you, we start with pencil and charcoal on paper and make a black and white drawing. We look at how to set up a drawing and what an exciting composition is. Then we add paint and color. At the end of the course we make a work with acrylic paint.

Materials present during the course.
