We will take these studies indoors for more 'in-depth' study and larger studio paintings. Classroom space provided also. Workshop hours: 8:30 am - 3:30 pm. Daily demonstrations, critiques and personal instruction.Open to all levels, but beginner's should have had a little experience.

ARCHITECTURE in PERSPECTIVE

  
July 28 - 29, 2009
(Tues/Wed)
Tickets on sale:
FEBRUARY 2

Don't be afraid to put buildings in your paintings. Learn to draw architecture in perspective. This will be a drawing only class, learning the rules and techniques of perspective. We will be working both 'plein air' and in the classroom from photos.
You will also learn how to calculate shadows - whether on a building, flower box, or a tree. This is invaluable to an artist to know when they alter a shape for their composition. Workshop hours: 8:30 am - 3:30 pm. Daily demonstrations, critiques and personal instruction. Open to all levels.

Supply list will be available on Filoli's web site once registration is available.
