While I provide studio easel space and appropriate lighting, you will need to bring your own canvases, paints, and brushes. This gives you the freedom to choose the brands you are comfortable with as we work together on color theory, knife painting, and proper canvas preparation. ### Mastering Oil and Acrylic Working with oils and acrylics is fundamentally different from sketching or watercolours. Oils offer a longer drying time, which is perfect for blending and creating rich, layered effects. Acrylics are fast-drying and vibrant, making them an excellent choice if you want to see results quickly or work in stages. ### What We Cover * **Canvas Fundamentals:** We start with how to prime and prepare your surface, ensuring your work lasts. * **Technical Skills:** You will learn knife painting for texture (impasto), glazing for depth, and specific brush control techniques. * **Color Theory:** Understanding how to mix, balance, and layer colors is key to making your work pop. * **Composition:** We focus on the 'why' behind the placement of objects, looking at composition rules for both still-life arrangements and landscapes. ### Getting Started I run these classes in small batches of 4 to 6 students at my Indiranagar studio. This size ensures I can walk over, check your brushstroke, and guide you personally through your project. Whether you are painting a complex portrait or a simple fruit study, we review your progress every week to make sure you are improving your technique. If you are just starting, we begin with exercises like apple or strawberry studies to understand light and shadow before moving to larger, more detailed compositions. ## About Jeeva Kumari I am Jeeva, and I believe art is for everyone, regardless of age. I help my students move beyond basic sketching to capture light, shadow, and texture on canvas. It is a joy to see a complete beginner finish their first landscape or portrait with confidence.
