Painting the Figure with a Chromatic Palette
with JaFang Lu
This workshop introduces students to the essential principles and practices of painting the figure with a chromatic palette. Through a combination of lectures, demonstrations, and hands-on exercises, students will gain a deeper understanding of how to observe, interpret, and utilize color/value relationships to reflect the lighting, the complexion of the model and the environment accurately.
While the skill and knowledge gained in this workshop can lead to a more refined way of "finishing" a painting, the goal of this workshop is not in learning to develop a painting to a higher finish but to gain knowledge and familiarity of one's palette and its utilization. An open mind and willingness to experiment with paint application and color mixing are essential to putting the theories and principles introduced during the workshop to practice.
