An Introduction to Representational Painting by maxthemutt

This course will focus on direct painting and will introduce students to basics of both acrylic and oil painting methods and materials.

Working from still life set ups, students, having chosen either to work in acrylics or oil, will be taught how to plan a composition and transfer it to the canvas; how to use shapes of value to create the illusion of a three dimensional world; colour mixing, and the power of colour in conveying both space, form and texture.

Date: July 6-17 (July 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 13, 14, 25, 16, 17, 2009)
Time: 10:00 a.m. to 1:00 p.m.(10 Weekday mornings)
Class Size: Limited to 15

Cost: $400.00 + G.S.T.

    What is the age group for these summer courses? My daughter is 15, and a student at Etobicoke School of the Arts going into Gr. 11 in September.

  4. maxthemutt Says:

    Nina: We recommend age 15 and older. We would make exceptions to someone younger, but, there would have to be a maturity level that would allow the youth to focus and concentrate for extended periods.
