We will assemble a still life model on a staging area with produce from the Co-op, though you are welcome to paint something completely different. Josie will give a brief explanation on Shape, Value, Temperature, Hue, Chroma, and Light, the principles in painting, and demonstrate how to paint a sketch of the still life then block in with color (our painting process). If this sounds academic, don’t worry, it will be fun and accessible.
Josie Walker has been painting exclusively in oils since 2023 and has made numerous pieces, including landscapes, portraits, pet portraits, and unique commissioned pieces in various sizes. Though she doesn’t have a physical body of work, as all of her pieces to date have been gifted or sold, many of her paintings are available to view on Instagram at @josie.daisy93.
If you have materials of your own, feel free to bring them. Materials that will be provided include one canvas per person, a bulk pack of student grade paint brushes, large tubes of paint, and linseed oil.
