Interior rooms and spaces can project many personalities or moods. In this class, students will use their indoor surroundings as inspiration to create paintings of rooms that are imbued with much more than their actual furnishings. Students will learn the basics of perspective, composition, values, and light and shadow. The painting style will focus on expression and drama rather than making actual architectural renderings. Students are welcomed to work in their choice of painting media and can bring their own references to use. The instructor will have many examples of interior paintings to choose from as well, including art historical images by Matisse, Hopper and Vermeer.
