In this workshop, students will learn to simplify their subject into limited values and use value studies as roadmaps to a full color painting. These invaluable compositional tools will help the artist to organize shapes and values, strengthen the impact of a design, and make the painting process proceed more smoothly. Participants should have a basic understanding of the oil painting medium. Minimum of 5 students, maximum of 10.
