More and more projects.....

Some of the projects....

Here are some samples of the projects produced in the Oakville Painting Studio. Enjoy!!

fun projects!!!!....

In our studios, I try to mix serious and important composition themes like landscapes, still life, abstractions along with fun projects interesting for kids, like pets, animals and other fiction images like "venom" from the movie Spider Man. The techniques in each and every work has to be accoplished in a optimus way.

These are some of the pets and animals they got to paint. Really fun by the way!

process...

Recently we made a trip to Peggy's Cove. Some of the images where really beautiful. Some of my students decided to recreate one of my pictures into acrylics.

Technological support.....a must!

One of the things I believe isvery important is to create an ambiance through images and music. Coming from a background of musicians at home, I learned to work with beautiful music.
I like to not only provide a WIDE variety of music, from classical, jazz, new-age, baroque and modern. Kids are exposed to one hour or so of fine music, and they are also welcome to bring their own iPods or CD's as long as it is good for all thr group.
I also like to share videos, movies related to History of famous Artists, as well as the different tendencies and styles in Art.

My widescreen has been an excellent tool to teach and to project the images we are copying or studying!

The great Students!

In our Studio I have to say that the projects are getting better and better! If you scroll down you will see that eventhough some students have a couple of months who recently started, yet the results are fascinating!

The themes.........

As for the themes, I have prepared a program that will allow students to understand basic figures and volumes, passing from pencil sketching, proportion, texture, gradation, spacial elements and perspective.
