Description
Join Costa Dvorezky, in a small-group setting, where you will learn his expressive, figurative painting technique!
In this workshop, students will learn Costa's unique approach to painting the figure precisely, yet loose, as we explore painting figures from photos. Costa will give regular demonstrations and one-on-one feedback throughout the workshop. Costa will share his technique and experience as it relates to composition and design, color, brushwork, and more. Be prepared to fully immerse yourself in painting for four days, and leave having learnt a ton of valuable information. Some photos will be provided, and students will also need to bring some of their own. Students will need to submit photos for instructor approval before the class.
**Exact supplies will be posted one month prior to workshop.
Workshop Schedule
- 10:00 - 5:00
- Each day, time will be spent watching Costa demonstrate his technique, and plenty of time for student painting! Because this is a small group setting, Costa will have plenty of time to offer one-on-one support for the students.

MEET COSTA DVOREZKY
Costa has drawn inspiration for his prolific works of art from board travels and his abundant life experiences as both a visitor and resident of numerous countries around the world. Born in Russia in 1968, Costa developed his unique brand of art through his extensive schooling at the Art College and the Academy of Arts in Moscow. His passion and talent for art was recognized by Russia’s Union of Young Artists when he received the Development of The Year Award in 1997.
Through his paintings Costa goes beyond the obvious to uncover the symbolism within the human aspect of daily life. His creativity and style come alive through his works depicting dark and surreal imagery. As a viewer of Costa’s images, one is transported to a world of fictional proportions that exists in the recesses of the artist’s mind.
Metamorphosed human and animal figures shrouded in darkness, suggest the existence of a distorted world-order. These images evoke one to closely examine and question the reality of what one sees. Through his artwork, Costa challenges the observer to not only understand the scope of the actual image, but to also comprehend the feelings that the image provokes. His paintings are as bold as the statements that they make, and it is up to each individual to decipher what the meaning behind the image really is.
