Edinburgh School of Icon Painting is offering a master class
for all those who have experience either in icon painting or egg tempera.
The class is also suitable for artists who would like to
explore new technique. However we need to know a bit more about your experience
in order to decide if it would be appropriate for you. Please get in touch.
During 10 weeks of 3,5 hour sessions (35 hours) we will:
Explore composition looking for an
inspiration in iconography. Then create own composition.
Practise brush work, for example how a way
you hold your brush affects you painting in egg tempera.
Use different tools to achieve various
textures.
Experiment with paint using thin layers, different
thickness in different layers, more/less egg medium in different layers.
Explore texture as a factor in building
composition.
Use different surfaces like stone, plain
wood etc.
Use egg medium to create glossy finish as opposed
to matt finish.
Use various styles used in iconography to
create own composition.
All essential materials will be provided.
Students just need to bring an A4 sketchbook.
The whole cost for 35 hours is £265. Deposit of £70 is
required with registration. Balance should be paid prior to first session of
the course.
Please get in touch of you need to pay in instalments.
Classes will start on Saturday of 17th January
2015 at 10.30.
