ABOUT THE WORKSHOP:
This workshop is designed for artists that are interested in expanding their use of texture, experimenting with palette knife techniques, and developing a more expressive, process-driven approach to painting. The focus will be on developing transferable skills that can be applied across a wide range of subject matter. Students will explore how layered paint, bold color relationships, and surface variation can create energy, movement, and dimension without relying on traditional realism.
In this workshop, Victoria Barnhill will demonstrate her approach to constructing a painting from the ground up, beginning with laying a background, construction of composition with color blocking, then developing depth and complexity through layering and intentional knife work. Emphasis will be placed on texture development, creating depth using color theory, and paint handling.
Daily instruction will highlight demonstrations followed by guided working time and individual instruction at the easel. Students will learn how to loosen their approach, expand their use of texture, experiment with palette knife techniques, and develop a more confident, expressive painting style. Subject matter will focus on landscapes and botanical forms.
While acrylic paint and palette knife use will be central to the workshop, students who primarily work with brushes and oil paint are welcome and encouraged to integrate knife techniques into their existing practice. All skill levels welcome.
