DESCRIPTION OF LESSONS

This course, with Rosso Crimson, will teach you how to take inspiration from a photo reference and create a captivating painting.  Rosso will begin by showing you how she gets prepared for creating a painting, from sharing her studies, to color mixing, to transferring her studies to her substrate.  She will share her color palette with you, and what paints she likes to mix to create interesting skin tones. Watch as she mixes these paints to create the palette needed to complete her figurative portrait.  Next, she will share how she takes a study and transfers that idea onto a substrate

After she has her palette ready and her study transferred, Rosso is ready to share her step-by-step process for painting a figure.  Watch as Rosso begins her figure painting, first blocking in the portrait and then moving into adding gold leaf to the background.  After that, Rosso will share her thoughts as she decides whether she wants to create a large hairstyle, or flowers on the models head.  This is an interesting conversation that will be helpful in your own compositions.  Next, we will move in to the design and composition of the dress and background.  Again, you will listen in to Rosso's thoughts as she composes and paints this part of the painting.  As Rosso continues on in the painting process, you will be a part of her decision making as she chooses paint colors to create effects, shadow, value, and more.  You will discover the choices that she comes to in order to make an ordinary painting, a great one!  We hope you will be inspired by her process and adapt it to your own style of painting!  Please join us in class!

MEET ROSSO CRIMSON - ARTIST/INSTRUCTOR

RCrimson2023CourseImage3

In her portraiture, Rosso Emerald Crimson renders female subjects who emerge through a haze of pastels and muted tones.

The artist often depicts the women and girls staring forward with unsmiling expressions and are reimagined within timeless landscapes.

Technically, while the portrayal of the figures is achieved by a meticulous rendering using traditional oil painting techniques, the deconstruction (and reconstruction) of the surrounding derives from the juxtaposition of different media, including spray paint, vigorous scraping and scratching of the surface and application of metal leaf and gilding. The creative process is deliberately chaotic in the making yet geared towards the achievement of a sense of harmony and a visually engaging imagery.
