This week-long\nst udio workshop offers students a chance to explore the varied qualities of\ nthe oil painting medium with respected painter Connie Borup. Working from \nphotographs\, students will learn indirect painting techniques such as\n underpainting\, glazing\, stenciling\, washing and scumbling. Each student is\nencouraged to develop his or her personal style and be open to new\nd iscoveries.
Connie’s recent art work has been taking a closer\,\n more intimate look at nature. She is drawn to the quiet\, meditative aspec ts\nof the natural world\; fascinated by the shapes of plants\, leaves\, p ods\,\nbranches and twigs and the play of light and shade on their surface s. These\npatterns generate visual and meditative interest. Reflections an d shadows\noffer a chance to stop and observe complex patterns in nature. This\ncomplexity can increase the meditative state by holding one’s atte ntion\nand focus longer. My paintings investigate the different levels of reality\nwe can observe in the natural world.
