Stephen Bauman demo

The Romero Hidalgo Artists’ Studios and NFX Studios will be honored to host two days “Live figure painting demonstration/ Sight-size approach” with Stephen Bauman. We will be privileged to hear and see more about Stephen’s academic sight-size method of painting. He will discuss his palette organization, setting up your model, background, light conditions, setting up your canvas, sight-size measurements process, proportions, and value as color. To Stephen, skill in drawing is fundamental, and among the most important assets a painter can possess. In his four years as a student he worked to understand the relationship of drawing to painting in the same way his teachers at the Academy understood it. As an instructor in the Intensive Drawing Program since 2007, by teaching the principles of drawing as they were handed down to him, he feels he has learned as much as he has taught, and hopes to transmit the same to his students.

Date: August Saturday 29 and Sunday 30, 1:30 p.m. to 4:30 p.m.
