This beginner and intermediate workshop on oil painting covers differences between oil and water-based paints, palette setup, and color mixing. The class focuses on application techniques with a still life, starting with an introduction and demonstration, followed by painting time using a reference from the instructor.

Materials list:
- Paints: Titanium White, Burnt Sienna, Burnt Umber, Cadmium Red, Cadmium Yellow, Ultramarine BlueAll other colors are optional
-Brushes: A variety of brush sizes and shapes, as well as, both stiff and soft bristles are recommended.
-Palette Knife: I use a medium/small metal diamond shaped palette knife for both mixing and application of paint.
-Artist Palette: A proper wood or glass palette is recommended, palette paper will work fine for this workshop. Please avoid creative substitutes (such as watercolor palettes, paper plates, anything wrapped in tinfoil, etc.) as they tend to cause problems during the painting process.
-Surface: A primed and stretched canvas, or hardboard panel is best for painting. A heavy bodied paper, such as watercolor paper, will also work.
-Lint Free Rags or paper Towels
- Turpentine, Odorless Turpiniod, or Mineral Spirits :Good for cleaning brushes, but I just use soap and water.
