THE FIGURE IN OIL
Peggi Kroll-Roberts
Course Description
In this workshop the figure will be the subject matter with the focus on improving the fundamentals: drawing, value, color and design. We will paint the figure in a studio setting with simple costumes and props. There will be daily demonstrations that will address design and technique in a manner that the individual artist may express themselves in a more personal voice. Be ready to cover a lot of canvas and gain more mileage by painting smaller sizes. "I believe that more is learned through many small starts than laboring over a larger canvas. Students will receive plenty of one on one instruction and individual demonstrations.
Instructor
Peggi Kroll-Roberts was trained at Arizona State University and the Art Center College of Design in Pasadena, CA. Peggi worked as a fashion and advertising illustrator before making the transition into fine art. Using intense color and value to accentuate her subject, she moved into fine art with a bold palette, a love for small paintings and a very loose style that achieves a lot with a few very energetic brush strokes. Inspired by her children she also paints beach scenes and other aspects of their lives.
