A workshop by Los Angeles Artist Scott Yeskel exploring themethods and ideas of contemporary Abstract Painting. Yeskel derives his inspiration from the Landscape and incorporates thick layers of oil paint to come up with abstract imagery of cities, atmosphere, structures and masses. The workshop will cover how to use a photographic reference to start your painting, how to work ala prima with oils, and how to know when a piece is complete. Various Demos will be performed as well as a brief talk about Yeskel’s work and inspiration. Acrylic paints can be used in place of oils. Material list will be provided before the first class. No Class 11/25.
