Celeste McCollough
zoom classes
In this class, students will be guided in painting projects of their choosing over the course of the five weeks. At the beginning of each class, Celeste will provide examples of work and methods for the students to employ as appropriate as they work through their own projects. Two days prior to each class, students will email Celeste a photo of what they currently are working on along with a photo of their reference material. Students will be provided with log-in information via email. During the Zoom sessions, Celeste will provide concrete comments and suggestions regarding each student’s work, including covering issues of artistic approach, composition, drawing, color, atmospheric perspective and linear perspective.
The class will be conducted via Zoom, so students will need access to a computer, Internet connection, and ability to log onto Zoom. They will also need to be able to photograph and email their work and reference materials
Students may utilize any paints and materials they have on hand. Celeste will be placing particular emphasis on painting with a palette knife and cold wax medium, and she will strongly emphasize utilizing a three-color limited palette (e.g. Cad Yellow Light, Cad Red Medium, and Ultramine Blue with white; Yellow Ocher, Quinacridone Rose and Cobalt with white, etc.) Students may utilize any of the three primaries in discussing mixing color). Students may work on any support and support size.
