SUMMARY:Oil Painting: The Shape of Light
DESCRIPTION:Sharpen your observation skills and deepen your understanding of oil painting in this engaging intermediate-level class focused on learning to truly see as a painter. Through guided exercises and studio work\, students will explore value\, light\, shape\, edges and the subtle shifts of color that bring paintings to life. We'll begin with a simple still life\, using it as a foundation for understanding form\, light\, shadow and color relationships. From there\, we'll move into more dynamic and expressive subject matter as students gain confidence in interpreting what they see rather than simply copying details. This class is designed for painters who already have basic drawing skills and some familiarity with painting\, whether acrylics\, watercolor or oils\, and want to strengthen their technique\, observation and artistic voice. Emphasis will be placed on creating depth\, atmosphere and believable light while developing a more confident approach to painting. This class will help train your eye to recognize the quiet subtleties that make a painting come alive.\nINSTRUCTOR BIO:Susan BradburyColor is at the heart of everything I create.  As a fine artist living and working in Bedford\, Virginia\, I am constantly inspired by the beauty around me.  I work primarily in acrylics and oils\, gaining my inspiration by my love of vibrant color\, strong value relationships and the emotional impact of light.  Through careful brushwork and expressive compositions\, I work toward creating artwork that balances energy\, movement and atmosphere. I strive for my work to reflect my passion for capturing both the beauty of everyday moments and the feeling behind them\, inviting viewers to connect through color\, light and emotion.https://www.susan-miller-bradbury-artist.com/
