Edgar Degas was one of the founding artists of Impressionism. Degas called his work the result of “premeditated instantaneousness.” Ballet dancers were one of his main subjects. Degas said, “People call me the painter of dancing girls. It never occurred to them that my chief interest in dancers lies in rendering movement and painting pretty clothes.”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’ Dancers Before the Ballet in a modern context.
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.
