Learn the basics of "deceive the eye" painting with effective use of shadow and light to give 3-D effects.
Students are taught using water-based acrylic glazes to render light and shadow in painting architectural elements in such a way as to make them "pop" off a surface.
Special tools and techniques are introduced with instruction in
limestone blocks with mortar joints, fitted arched stone wall, faux
paneling, rondelles and grisaille ornaments. All done in tromploy
realism
I have had students in this class whose experiance ranged from
beginner to accomplished portrait artists. They all learned important
trade tricks to speed up production time while working with water-based
acrylics.

A lot of people make the mistake of equating "realism"
with trompe l'oeil (phonetically tromploy). Trompe l'Oeil
is always rendered full-size and with a one-point perspective
so that the image will be truly deceptive from only one point
of view.
Realism is more like a photograph where scale makes no differance. |
