In both landscape and portrait painting courses, there's a focus on how to achieve classical realism apart from plain photo-realism. You will learn that,
- There's a fundamentally different way to approach image-making in classical realism that's not just copying a photo
- You can express certain emotions or ideas through the use of visual concepts.
It's a big struggle for a lot of artists when it comes to expressing their own authentic ideas and visions in their head onto two-dimensional images.
Throughout the entire curriculum, we will be examining foundational tools of image-making through landscape and portraiture. Then we will progress onto understanding and applying these concepts and tools to give life to visions that you've wanted to express.
