How to Paint a Landscape
The course How to Paint a landscape will clarify all the questions you’ve ever had about painting fields, meadows, or landscape views. The full-day course is divided into two blocks. In the first, theoretical part, we will have a lecture on the landscape with an example of famous landscape paintings. In the second, practical part, we will dive into painting itself. We will talk about what atmospheric perspective is and how it changes the colors in the landscape, we will find out what the first and second planes are and how they affect the composition of the picture, and we will explain how to work with oil paints. We paint according to the model or our own photos. The course is intended for both complete beginners and advanced students.
