OIL PAINTING & the MASTERS-II with Artist-in-Residence JON ALLAN MARSHALL
August 17, 2019 @ 9:00 am - 12:00 pm
This course is comprised of two classes over two consecutive Saturdays August 10 & August 17. The course will introduce students to a traditional layered approach to oil painting. Jon will use modern materials to bring students step by step through a painting process employed by masters such as Rembrandt, Vermeer, and Ruisdael. Students will learn important technical rules for archival permanence, from beginning surface preparation to the final varnish, as well as some color theory and helpful time saving tricks. At the beginning of each class Jon will demonstrate all that will be covered for that day. Students will finish the class with their own completed painting and a good understanding of how to use this technique for their own personal expression. (Advanced)
JON ALLAN MARSHALL
Born in Quincy, Massachusetts in 1964 and educated at the Massachusetts College of Art, Mr. Marshall works primarily in oils in the “classical tradition” inspired by 17th century Dutch landscape, still life, and portrait painters. His mastery of landscape painting unfurled after his move to Maine nearly 30 years ago to areas close to mountains and seacoast where he receives constant inspiration for his work.
Recognized for his ability at an early age, Marshall was one of the youngest ever Copley Master honored by Boston’s Copley Society of Art. Recently he received the Alden Bryan Memorial Award for traditional landscape in oil from the CSA.
A serious and productive artist, Marshall’s works are widely exhibited throughout the United States from Brunswick to Boston, New York City to Santa Fe.
