Milt Kobayashi will take you through the arc of an oil painting, dealing with the problems that will arise, embracing alternative solutions, and exploring tangential ideas as they present themselves. His morning demos will focus on design and composition as a means of pushing an idea. He will talk about values and the affect light has on form. By midweek, he will be taking you through his process of painting.
The class will be a practical demonstration of problem solving and hopefully, enable the students to embrace their creative nature and break free from linear thinking.
- Please note: class will begin at 10 am every day and end at 5 pm.
Instructor -- Milt Kobayashi
Milt Kobayashi is a sophisticated painter who demonstrates a consummate mastery of design and an unsentimental curiosity about people. The fertile cross-currents of two great cultures have nurtured his art to a harmonious resolve of Western technique with Oriental color, pattern and spatial composition. He has won the National Academy of Design’s Ranger Purchase Award and the Allied Artists’ Silver Medal. He has also been featured in Southwest Art, The Artbook of the New West, and Workshop Magazine.
