Raw Umber Challenge - Oil Painting
In this 4 session series, Lizet Dingemans covers four important themes in oil painting:
- Monochrome
- Warm and cool
- Form
- Texture
Each session lasts an hour, and Lizet paints in real time so you can either paint along with her or just listen and do your own thing - it's entirely up to you.
“This course was an absolute revelation to me. I learned so much; it turned out I'd been trying to run before I could walk. The projects and challenges taught by Lizet were invaluable. By learning some real solid technique, I have changed my practice for the better” - Beverley Wightman
This course is suitable for all levels, and it's guaranteed to give you insights into oil painting and improve your skills.
Note that the first session in this series is free

In this session, Lizet paints in monochrome. This is an extremely useful exercise since it lets you focus on paint application without worrying about colour.

This week, Lizet focuses on warm and cool as she paints a pear. Developing the skill to paint in different colours (in this case red and green) without them turning into mud is an essential part of learning to paint.
In this hour-long session, Lizet focuses on 'form' - the ability to use paint to make your works look three dimensional.
In the final part of our oil painting series, the theme is 'texture'.
