Abstracting a Rainy Urban Street – Discovering Oils WITH OKSANA ZHELISKO
Sunday, Sept 7
12:30 PM – 5:30 PM
$110 ($80 + $30 Supply Fee)
Class Limit: 15 Students
Beginners Welcome!
Join us for a relaxed, creative day of oil painting as we explore the mood and motion of a busy city street in the rain. This workshop introduces you to the basics of oil paints while guiding you through an expressive, abstract interpretation of an urban rainy scene.
You’ll learn how to work with oils, simplify complex images, and use colour, texture, and light to capture the energy of a bustling street. We will focus on blending techniques, reflections, and creating atmosphere.
Most of the materials are provided. Just bring your curiosity and a willingness to experiment. By the end of the day, you’ll leave with a finished painting and a new appreciation for the beauty of oils.
