The attached document has clean up instructions as well as health and safety tips/precautions for working with oil paint in your home. We'll go over this on the first class.

Biggest Stay Healthy Rules:
Solvents are bad to breath: Use Odorless Mineral Spirits, but still ventilate your space.
If you can't ventilate, don't use the solvent. Use Baby Oil or Vegetable Oil to clean your brushes, then soap and water.
Pigments are bad to ingest or breath: Don't sand your paintings, if you do wear a respirator. If you sand your gesso, wear a respirator. If you make your own oil paint from pigments, wear a respirator. Don't accidentally eat any oil paint (wash your hands before eating).
Don't dump oily, solventy stuff down the drain: Clean your brushes with baby oil/brush cleaner before going to the sink to wash with soap. Keep your Odorless Mineral Spirits in a Silicoil, so the clean stuff rises to the top. When you have to dispose of oily, solventy stuff--it goes in the trash or toxic waste (if a large amount).
Don't scrunch up your oily rags and press them into the trash: Open them up, let them dry on your palette, then throw away. ]]> 2020-09-12 18:15:47 UTC https://padlet.com/abigaildrapkin/oilpainting/wish/741144323 Catherine Kehoe abigaildrapkin https://padlet.com/abigaildrapkin/oilpainting/wish/741144358 Before and After Velasquez, Infanta Margarita Theresa]]> 2020-09-12 18:15:47 UTC https://padlet.com/abigaildrapkin/oilpainting/wish/741144358 abigaildrapkin https://padlet.com/abigaildrapkin/oilpainting/wish/741144360 2020-09-12 18:15:47 UTC https://padlet.com/abigaildrapkin/oilpainting/wish/741144360 abigaildrapkin https://padlet.com/abigaildrapkin/oilpainting/wish/741144361 2020-09-12 18:15:47 UTC https://padlet.com/abigaildrapkin/oilpainting/wish/741144361 abigaildrapkin https://padlet.com/abigaildrapkin/oilpainting/wish/741144362 2020-09-12 18:15:47 UTC https://padlet.com/abigaildrapkin/oilpainting/wish/741144362 abigaildrapkin https://padlet.com/abigaildrapkin/oilpainting/wish/741144363 2020-09-12 18:15:47 UTC https://padlet.com/abigaildrapkin/oilpainting/wish/741144363 abigaildrapkin https://padlet.com/abigaildrapkin/oilpainting/wish/741144364 2020-09-12 18:15:47 UTC https://padlet.com/abigaildrapkin/oilpainting/wish/741144364 abigaildrapkin https://padlet.com/abigaildrapkin/oilpainting/wish/741144365 2020-09-12 18:15:47 UTC https://padlet.com/abigaildrapkin/oilpainting/wish/741144365 abigaildrapkin https://padlet.com/abigaildrapkin/oilpainting/wish/741144366 2020-09-12 18:15:47 UTC https://padlet.com/abigaildrapkin/oilpainting/wish/741144366 abigaildrapkin https://padlet.com/abigaildrapkin/oilpainting/wish/741144367 2020-09-12 18:15:47 UTC https://padlet.com/abigaildrapkin/oilpainting/wish/741144367 abigaildrapkin https://padlet.com/abigaildrapkin/oilpainting/wish/741144368 2020-09-12 18:15:47 UTC https://padlet.com/abigaildrapkin/oilpainting/wish/741144368 abigaildrapkin https://padlet.com/abigaildrapkin/oilpainting/wish/741144370 2020-09-12 18:15:47 UTC https://padlet.com/abigaildrapkin/oilpainting/wish/741144370 abigaildrapkin https://padlet.com/abigaildrapkin/oilpainting/wish/741144371 2020-09-12 18:15:47 UTC https://padlet.com/abigaildrapkin/oilpainting/wish/741144371 abigaildrapkin https://padlet.com/abigaildrapkin/oilpainting/wish/741144372 2020-09-12 18:15:47 UTC https://padlet.com/abigaildrapkin/oilpainting/wish/741144372 abigaildrapkin https://padlet.com/abigaildrapkin/oilpainting/wish/741144373 2020-09-12 18:15:47 UTC https://padlet.com/abigaildrapkin/oilpainting/wish/741144373 abigaildrapkin https://padlet.com/abigaildrapkin/oilpainting/wish/741144374 2020-09-12 18:15:47 UTC https://padlet.com/abigaildrapkin/oilpainting/wish/741144374 abigaildrapkin https://padlet.com/abigaildrapkin/oilpainting/wish/741144375 2020-09-12 18:15:47 UTC https://padlet.com/abigaildrapkin/oilpainting/wish/741144375 abigaildrapkin https://padlet.com/abigaildrapkin/oilpainting/wish/741144376 2020-09-12 18:15:47 UTC https://padlet.com/abigaildrapkin/oilpainting/wish/741144376 abigaildrapkin https://padlet.com/abigaildrapkin/oilpainting/wish/741144377 2020-09-12 18:15:47 UTC https://padlet.com/abigaildrapkin/oilpainting/wish/741144377 abigaildrapkin https://padlet.com/abigaildrapkin/oilpainting/wish/741144378 2020-09-12 18:15:47 UTC https://padlet.com/abigaildrapkin/oilpainting/wish/741144378 Bill Sleeth abigaildrapkin https://padlet.com/abigaildrapkin/oilpainting/wish/741144380 2020-09-12 18:15:47 UTC https://padlet.com/abigaildrapkin/oilpainting/wish/741144380 Do you have favorite figurative painters?

Using the same photo reference or still life set up, we'll use different limited palettes and painting processes to explore the range of possible approaches available to us in oil painting.
You will work from either one of the photographs below or you can take your own photo of an object (with a clear light source)/ work from life.

Have 2 sheets of Yupo paper (or two canvas panels, canvas paper, primed paper, etc.). Divide both into 4 rectangles about 4 in. on the shortest side. Tape them around the edges to a board (if using Yupo or other primed paper).

4 Approaches
1. Monochromatic Value Painting: Black + Titanium White 
*If you don't have black, make a mixed black from Raw Umber and Ultramarine Blue

2. Grisaille with Glazes of Color:
Raw Umber + Black + White, left to dry, glaze transparent color next classes. https://painting.tube/grisaille-palette/

3. Complementary Color Painting: Choose from...
Ultramarine Blue + Burnt Sienna or Mixed Orange
Cadmium Red + Mixed Green 
Lemon Yellow and Mixed Purple

4. Planar Shapes Palette Knife Painting:
3 primaries (your choice) + white]]> 2020-09-12 18:37:52 UTC https://padlet.com/abigaildrapkin/oilpainting/wish/741160091 abigaildrapkin https://padlet.com/abigaildrapkin/oilpainting/wish/741188090 2020-09-12 19:14:15 UTC https://padlet.com/abigaildrapkin/oilpainting/wish/741188090 abigaildrapkin https://padlet.com/abigaildrapkin/oilpainting/wish/741189501 2020-09-12 19:16:46 UTC https://padlet.com/abigaildrapkin/oilpainting/wish/741189501 abigaildrapkin https://padlet.com/abigaildrapkin/oilpainting/wish/741191072 2020-09-12 19:19:17 UTC https://padlet.com/abigaildrapkin/oilpainting/wish/741191072 abigaildrapkin https://padlet.com/abigaildrapkin/oilpainting/wish/741191259 2020-09-12 19:19:43 UTC https://padlet.com/abigaildrapkin/oilpainting/wish/741191259 abigaildrapkin https://padlet.com/abigaildrapkin/oilpainting/wish/741193712 2020-09-12 19:23:45 UTC https://padlet.com/abigaildrapkin/oilpainting/wish/741193712 abigaildrapkin https://padlet.com/abigaildrapkin/oilpainting/wish/741193904 2020-09-12 19:24:04 UTC https://padlet.com/abigaildrapkin/oilpainting/wish/741193904 abigaildrapkin https://padlet.com/abigaildrapkin/oilpainting/wish/741195096 2020-09-12 19:26:07 UTC https://padlet.com/abigaildrapkin/oilpainting/wish/741195096 abigaildrapkin https://padlet.com/abigaildrapkin/oilpainting/wish/741204962 2020-09-12 19:42:01 UTC https://padlet.com/abigaildrapkin/oilpainting/wish/741204962 abigaildrapkin https://padlet.com/abigaildrapkin/oilpainting/wish/741205053 2020-09-12 19:42:11 UTC https://padlet.com/abigaildrapkin/oilpainting/wish/741205053 abigaildrapkin https://padlet.com/abigaildrapkin/oilpainting/wish/741205606 2020-09-12 19:42:59 UTC https://padlet.com/abigaildrapkin/oilpainting/wish/741205606 Painting Approach #2: Dead Layer with Glazes of Color abigaildrapkin https://padlet.com/abigaildrapkin/oilpainting/wish/741232886 Talk about Mediums and Glazing
Some Mediums You Might Have:
Solvent-Free Mediums:
Linseed Oil (very glossy, dries slow)
Walnut Oil
Anything called "Solvent Free Medium"
Mediums with Solvent:
50% Linseed Oil + 50% Gamsol
Oil Painting Medium
Galkyd (dries fast)
Liquin (dries fast)
Mediums that add body:
Neo Megilp
Cold Wax Medium (also makes it more matte)
Use this Palette to Glaze over your Grisaille Underpainting:
Cadmium Red
Alizarin Crimson
Lemon Yellow
Ultramarine Blue
Avoid using white! If you find you need a little to achieve the right color, or add highlights at the end, use Zinc White or Lead White (more transparent whites)

If a white on white painting doesn't excite you, choose a different color. The goal is to compare close color and value relationships within a very limited color scheme. For example, you could try mostly all red objects plus a green or green-gray object. Your painting could also be a portrait. In that case, the choice of dress, background, and lighting play significant roles in color idea of the paining.]]> 2020-09-12 20:48:23 UTC https://padlet.com/abigaildrapkin/oilpainting/wish/741245971 Lynette Yiadom-Boakye abigaildrapkin https://padlet.com/abigaildrapkin/oilpainting/wish/741249543 2020-09-12 20:54:20 UTC https://padlet.com/abigaildrapkin/oilpainting/wish/741249543 Ed Praybe abigaildrapkin https://padlet.com/abigaildrapkin/oilpainting/wish/741251294 2020-09-12 20:57:13 UTC https://padlet.com/abigaildrapkin/oilpainting/wish/741251294 Antonio Lopez Garcia abigaildrapkin https://padlet.com/abigaildrapkin/oilpainting/wish/741251788 2020-09-12 20:58:03 UTC https://padlet.com/abigaildrapkin/oilpainting/wish/741251788 Nicholas Uribe abigaildrapkin https://padlet.com/abigaildrapkin/oilpainting/wish/741252484 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SV316GS7tVc]]> 2020-09-12 20:59:23 UTC https://padlet.com/abigaildrapkin/oilpainting/wish/741252484 Antonio Lopez Garcia abigaildrapkin https://padlet.com/abigaildrapkin/oilpainting/wish/741252840 2020-09-12 20:59:57 UTC https://padlet.com/abigaildrapkin/oilpainting/wish/741252840 Catherine Kehoe abigaildrapkin https://padlet.com/abigaildrapkin/oilpainting/wish/741261913 2020-09-12 21:16:20 UTC https://padlet.com/abigaildrapkin/oilpainting/wish/741261913 Ed Praybe abigaildrapkin https://padlet.com/abigaildrapkin/oilpainting/wish/741264534 2020-09-12 21:21:38 UTC https://padlet.com/abigaildrapkin/oilpainting/wish/741264534 Euan Uglow abigaildrapkin https://padlet.com/abigaildrapkin/oilpainting/wish/741265390 2020-09-12 21:23:20 UTC https://padlet.com/abigaildrapkin/oilpainting/wish/741265390 Euan Uglow abigaildrapkin https://padlet.com/abigaildrapkin/oilpainting/wish/741266319 2020-09-12 21:25:06 UTC https://padlet.com/abigaildrapkin/oilpainting/wish/741266319 Audrey Flack abigaildrapkin https://padlet.com/abigaildrapkin/oilpainting/wish/741267223 2020-09-12 21:26:44 UTC https://padlet.com/abigaildrapkin/oilpainting/wish/741267223 Susan Jane Walp abigaildrapkin https://padlet.com/abigaildrapkin/oilpainting/wish/741267471 2020-09-12 21:27:11 UTC https://padlet.com/abigaildrapkin/oilpainting/wish/741267471 Sergio Lopez abigaildrapkin https://padlet.com/abigaildrapkin/oilpainting/wish/741269503 gouache]]> 2020-09-12 21:30:20 UTC https://padlet.com/abigaildrapkin/oilpainting/wish/741269503 Painting Approach #3 Temperature abigaildrapkin https://padlet.com/abigaildrapkin/oilpainting/wish/741269671 Temperature Color Scale Using Ultramarine Blue and Burnt Sienna ]]> 2020-09-12 21:30:39 UTC https://padlet.com/abigaildrapkin/oilpainting/wish/741269671 Emil Robinson abigaildrapkin https://padlet.com/abigaildrapkin/oilpainting/wish/756548639 2020-09-17 18:21:21 UTC https://padlet.com/abigaildrapkin/oilpainting/wish/756548639 Alex Fowler abigaildrapkin https://padlet.com/abigaildrapkin/oilpainting/wish/756558285 2020-09-17 18:23:27 UTC https://padlet.com/abigaildrapkin/oilpainting/wish/756558285 Ilya Gefter abigaildrapkin https://padlet.com/abigaildrapkin/oilpainting/wish/756566767 2020-09-17 18:25:22 UTC https://padlet.com/abigaildrapkin/oilpainting/wish/756566767 Euan Uglow abigaildrapkin https://padlet.com/abigaildrapkin/oilpainting/wish/756570856 2020-09-17 18:26:15 UTC https://padlet.com/abigaildrapkin/oilpainting/wish/756570856 Materials: abigaildrapkin https://padlet.com/abigaildrapkin/oilpainting/wish/756586858

Consider a complementary color palette so you can emphasize warm/cool color relationships. It is also a way to get some beautiful neutral grays that will make those hints of other colors shine.
    Here are a few options to try:

    Burnt Sienna and Cobalt Blue

    Alizarin Crimson and Ultramarine Blue

    Raw Umber and Ultramarine Blue

    Raw Umber and Ivory Black

    Cad Red Light and Pthalo Blue

    Yellow Ochre and Dioxazine Violet

    Or, choose 3 primaries:

    Ivory Black, Cad Red, Yellow Ochre (Zorn Palette)

    Paynes Grey, Red Earth, and Yellow Ochre

    Ultramarine Blue, Alizarin Crimson, Cad Yellow Light

What's exciting?
    Problem--What needs to change?
    Polish--Is it almost there? What last little bits to polish it off?


    Things to assess:
    Value: Where is the lightest light and the darkest dark? Are the values in the right range, are any too dark or too light? Where should the highest contrast be?

    Temperature/Color: Where does the light create warm areas or cool areas? Is there anything too cool in a warm area or vice versa?

    Subject Matter and Composition: What is the mood of the painting and how does the color impact the mood?
    Where is the focal point and how does our eye move through the piece?

    Edges: How does the use of hard and soft edges impact the feeling of space in the painting?]]>     2020-10-22 23:26:24 UTC https://padlet.com/abigaildrapkin/oilpainting/wish/854495911     Theme: The Human Object abigaildrapkin https://padlet.com/abigaildrapkin/oilpainting/wish/854503840 Interpret this idea any way you like, but consider including elements of both still life and portrait in this piece. Or, treat a figurative element as a still life, or an object as a human.

    In preparation for this piece, choose a painting (either art historical or contemporary) to respond to. Let it influence your work in some way through:
    Composition (Set up a situation that follows the same main compositional elements such as placement, focal point, large vs. small shapes, diagonals/pyramids)
    Color Scheme (Try to emulate the same color scheme with your work)
    Subject Matter     (Could you re-invent an idea from art history in today's context)
