Begin with the most basic building blocks, the foundational principles of classical drawing. In this video series, Kevin takes you step by step and opens up the world of drawing.
Use common household objects to teach you how to find the Geometric Essence in everything you see. Listen to various lessons that teach you how light flows over form, and more.
Kevin covers composition, different lighting techniques, textures, and the dialogue between shapes. Learn how to pair different textures in order to "heighten" an object.
How does light pass through a jar? How do you capture the heaviness of cast iron? What is the difference between titanium white and flake white? Over the course of a dozen hours, Kevin answers dozens of questions such as these, as he takes his still life painting from setting up the objects and designing the composition, to laying in the first few touches of turpentine rich paint. Each step is shown on the video, with thorough narration by Kevin as he paints. Join us, for a fascinating evolution of a beautiful still life painting.
