Description: Painting doesn’t have to be complicated. Join instructor Darcy Melton in this workshop focusing on the essentials of still-life painting, using a limited five-color palette. From block-in to shading and highlights, we will move step-by-step through the process of creating an impactful still-life. Beginning with setting up our palettes, followed by an introductory demo, we will then start our own paintings. Group demos will be given at every step as well as hands-on individual attention throughout. 

Artists may need:
• Easel
• Surface (either 5x7, 6x8, 5x5, 6x6 or 8x8 in) (wood panel, gessoed panel, canvas panel, or canvas)
• Paint: Burnt Siena, Ultramarine Blue, Titanium White, Cadmium Yellow, Cadmium Red
• Paint brushes (I recommend a few small rounds and a small flat) 
• Palette knife 
• Linseed oil and container (linseed oil only, my method of painting uses no solvents) 
• Paper towels 
• Palette
