Description
This course will begin with a discussion of color theory (as applicable to shading) and a quick overview of Western Europe manuscripts through our period. We will then shift to a live demonstration of painting techniques, specifically focusing on acanthus leaves, fabric draping, and simple shapes. Students are encouraged to paint along and ask questions.
