Beginner Oil Painting
taught by Lisa David
Getting started in oil painting begins with a simple question: What do you want to paint? Your answer helps determine your supplies, setup, and approach. In this class, you’ll learn the fundamentals of oil painting — including materials, color mixing, color value, composition, glazing, brushwork, and more.
Along the way, we’ll clear up common misconceptions about oil painting, show you how to choose the right tools for your subject, and guide you through each step so you can successfully create your first works. By the end, you’ll have both a solid foundation and the confidence to continue exploring oil painting on your own.
You will complete 2–3 finished paintings — both still-life and landscape studies — while gaining practical experience in the studio.
All materials will be provided.
