Acrylic Painting, Women Seated Beside a Vase of Flowers, Edgar Degas
Saturday, July 20, 12:00 - 4:00PM
$89 / One Class
Instructor: Kevin McCarty
Location: Victory Parkway Campus
Edgar Degas was a complex innovative artist whose paintings bridged the gap between traditional academic art and the radical movements of the 20th century. In this painting, the prominent bouquet and the off-center figure, gazing distractedly to the side, exemplify Degas’s aim of capturing individuals in seemingly casual, slice-of-life views.
Join this class and use a combination of drawing, simplified form, and lyrical color to approximate the image Degas was trying to convey. Practice and build on his painting techniques to produce your own version of Degas’ Woman Seated Beside a Vase of Flowers in a modern context.
Supplies are included. One gallery-wrapped, stretched 11 x 14” fine art canvas, a set of brushes, and a full set of acrylic paints in a wide spectrum of colors are included in the class fee. Take home your own original piece of art ready for framing.
