Arleta's oil workshops are great transition for watercolor artists into oil, or oil artists who want to explore the beauty of glazing with transparent oils. She has perfected oil techniques to keep the luminosity of color that her images have always been known for. Arleta teaches a transparent style of oils with color glazes that takes time for each glaze to dry. You will be doing simple still life studies, of a rose, and fruit studies. This variety of exercises is designed to teach you how the color theory for glazing works in oils; you will also do a practice board to learn background techniques. In 2010, a new oil lesson will be given. Arleta supplies drawings for you to transfer, so it's all about learning in a fun class for ANY LEVEL of ability.
