This course is for anyone wishing to improve their drawing and painting skills, whether beginners or experienced artists. All levels of experience are welcome. We will draw and paint from observation using different subjects throughout the term: still life, portrait and landscape. We will look at the process of making a simple sketch to making a complete painting. Students will learn about contour line, tonal gradation, monochrome and chromatic painting, perspective and many other aspects of two-dimensional composition.
Students provide their own materials, and all media can be used.
Vincent Milne has been teaching at the HLSI for several years and also currently teaches art at Hampstead School of Art and Mary Ward Centre. He has a BA Hons in Fine Art Painting from Goldsmiths College and several postgraduate qualifications.
