Paint a simple landscape in oil using a simplified 4-step process that applies directly to a larger, more complex painting. This basic approach serves as an advanced preliminary study as well as an introduction for those new to the medium. Julie will cover creative use of color and color mixing and brushwork. There will be demos, instruction at all levels as needed, one-on-one critique and lots of painting time. Class time will be structured, yet open enough to accommodate the artistic spirit within us all. All levels are welcome and encouraged to attend. The only prerequisite is an attitude of joy in the act of painting! www.juliegilbertpollard.com

Students have the option to bring their own supplies or to rent painting supplies for a $20 fee. Please see Julie’s supply list on our website for details.

Pollard, Julie Gilbert

Julie Gilbert Pollard paints in oil and watercolor in a fluid, painterly manner. Her painting style, while representational, is colored with her own personal concept of reality. "The eye may see as a camera 'sees', but the mind's eye sees an altered, imagined image, what it wants and hopes to see. It's that illusive image uniquely mine, along with a heightened sense of 'realness' that I try to express in my paintings. This world of ours is often a frightening and mysterious place, but it is filled with scenes and subjects that excite my eye and imagination! The magical allure of the natural world, and my reverence for it, compel me to attempt to capture its essense on canvas or paper."
