painting architecture in acrylics

Learn this artist's personal approach to painting architecture and understanding perspective and get ideas on how architecture can be just a part of the composition or the entire subject matter.

Discussions on composition, color, value and acrylic painting techniques will also be covered. All this in a structured but light and fun environment!

Please bring personal images that include buildings as reference material. Oil and pastel artists are also welcome. Feel free to bring your lunch or snack to enjoy during class.

about the Guest Instructor

Joe A. Oakes
Each painting is an emotional response to color…  real or imagined but always felt.” All of us, in varying degrees, have become blind to the colors of our world. The mind dictates the color of things without true observation. Giving those colors back to each of us through painting is my goal. Taking the time to see the least obvious colors in everything is the start. Then I make those colors bigger, bolder and brighter so they become the star. That is the spark needed to awaken our desire to know color better and enjoy it in our everyday lives.
