Bridging the Classical and Modern

Master Realism. Unleash Your Creativity.

Explore the future of figure painting by learning to paint classically realistic figures while learning to marry them seamlessly with abstract design. Working from a model, Timothy Rees will demonstrate traditional realist painting techniques, then guide students as they explore concepts of design, including paint application, texture, and color, and help them to integrate these two seemingly disparate styles of art into a cohesive painting. Discover the freedom to paint expressively while holding on to the classical beauty of representational art.
