Acrylic Painting on Canvas Team Bonding Art Jamming Singapore Visual Arts Centre

Given the many challenges of portrait and figure painting, i.e., drawing, composition, colour, patterning, etc, the last thing you need is to be struggling with mixing your flesh tones for your painting.
Most beginners will chalk out (too much white resulting in a lifeless painting) or fail to achieve the full stretch of values from dark to light.
The practice of mixing flesh tones is a learned process that is best isolated from the demands of portrait drawing – the most efficient way of learning.
These four exercises are designed to train you in the four elements of flesh tones all of which contribute to developing form: warm/cool tone, light/dark tone, specific hue and specific value.
We will begin with the 9-tone grey bar from which you then extrapolate the arrangement of 49 warm and cool flesh tone. In the second session you proceed to the Flesh Ball where we apply those flesh tone to modeling form. This is also your introduction to ‘spotting’ which is a very powerful and beautiful method of painting.
Rembrandt was the consummate master of spotting. In Session 3 and 4 you further develop your mastery of mixing specific flesh tones and further your knowledge of spotting in colour by painting the eyes of Rembrandt’s ‘Man in a Feather Cap’.
Supply List:
Two 10×10″ canvases (Sessions 1 and 2)
One 12×12″ or slightly larger canvas
On both the 10×10″ canvases render a 7×7″ grid in pencil. And apply an imprimatura. This Youtube video will explain this simple process.

In the Batik Introduction Handkerchief Painting workshop, participants will learn the traditional art of batik, a wax-resist dyeing technique originating from Indonesia. The workshop begins with a brief history and overview of batik, highlighting its cultural significance and various techniques. Participants will then observe a demonstration of applying wax with tjanting tools and dyeing the fabric. Following the demonstration, each participant will design and create their own batik handkerchief, applying wax to create patterns and then dyeing their fabric. The workshop concludes with a group discussion, allowing participants to share their creations and reflect on their learning experience.
