Oil Painting with Style - Moving beyond the photo reference

Intended for beginner/intermediate students who have previously taken my Oil Painting with Confidence course OR already posses an understanding of color mixing theory and basic experience using oil painting materials. 

Build a painting from the ground up, infusing your own personal style into the composition. We will be starting with a reference photo of your choice, learning to design and edit what you see to find your own personal vision.
