In the “Study to Studio” workshop, professional artist Cody Wheelock will guide students through the process of turning a small sketch or study into a large, finished studio painting. He will share the process he uses; topics covered will include enlargement strategies, how to block-in a piece, underpainting considerations, brushwork, layering, and more. By the end of the day students will have a strong start on developing a large studio version of a sketch.
** Please note students should have reference material and at least a partial sketch in paint completed prior to starting the workshop.
Material List:
- Finished or partially finished study (this should be a small piece you’d like to create into a larger studio painting)
