    Demos and Drills is designed to get you working and boost your skills through intensive studio practice. Come prepared to suspend your habitual methods and learn new ways of doing things. The goal of the anatomy portion is to give you a familiarity with heads that will allow you to work intuitively on people without the stress of making things look "right." Next we will study Caravaggio to learn how indirect painters use layers of shape, value and color to build dynamic three-dimensional systems in paintings. We will also look at direct painters' methods of using optical mixing to push colors, creating surfaces with active, vibrant textures. Throughout the course we will be mixing these things together for a contemporary approach based on strong painting foundations. All are welcome.

    The School of the Museum of Fine Arts, Boston’s week-long intensives allow you to fully immerse yourself in artmaking. Register now for Continuing Education July courses.
