Working on their own projects, students will progress through a series of skills development exercises, learning to apply their newly acquired understanding of these processes.

The program, using oil paints, will include:

  • colour mixing
  • use of brushes, pallets, media and substrates
  • understanding light and tone
  • using warm and cool colours, dark and light tones
  • composition and painting in layers
  • underpainting using a grisaille and glazing
  • understanding focus, tonal shapes, negative spaces and convergence
