Do you ever look at your work and think “it looks so flat?" Studying classical painting techniques is a journey and a process to become a master. That is our goal for you which is why we guide you step by step on this journey. Our world is three dimensional, and one must learn the illusions and techniques painters use to portray this in objects, atmosphere and environment and, a unique and extremely accurate way of measuring.

In Beginning Classical Painting, we teach you many basics working from flat images like master copies. But to further your understanding of the most magical ways artists can trick the eye, we will teach you how to become an illusionist in Classical Painting II: The Classical Illusionist, and learn to portray the world in 3 dimension. This is the missing link and excellent precursor to working from the live model, environmental painting and so much more. This course is designed to give you a quality of depth and illusion in your work.

All ages & levels welcome.
