Painting from Nature in Oil Medium

21^st January 2012, Cubbon Park

All the participants gathered at the entrance of Tennis court in Cubbon Park at 10am.  All the materials easle, starters kit ( which contained matt, brush set, pencil, napkin, drinking water) and canvas board 18 X 20 inches were provided and we left for the location, which was 200mts away.

There were only 9 participants some did not turn up inspite of blocking the seat.  We began the days session by introducing Sentil Kumar our instructor to the participants.  He told them to sketch using the paper directly from the brush using oil medium.  As some of them found difficult, he demonstrated a quick sketch which motivated them and they all started choosing a location and worked in monochrome.  Day one they worked on a paper which was smooth in texture.

Our participants a couple of them senior citizens, couple a high school students, a doctor, a IT profession and some home makers.  There skill level varied some were good and some average.  As I had told earlier drawing skill would be a added advantage in the current workshop, I did not take any beginners. All the participants were beginners for oil medium,   As per the instruction by Senthil, all the participants worked in a monochrome where each one explored the natural beauty.  They all had a round of tea, where they all discussed one another, also they struggled in the medium as they were more used to water colour,  Senthil corrected their work individually and gave them inputs to improvise.  Packed north indian lunch was provided at 1: 15pm, after the lunch they were told to use colours to express the landscape.

When  told about using colours they were all excited, they changed their locations some of the wanted to paint the bamboo trees, some rocks and others trees which were abundant in cubbon park. Our instructor gave them a quick demo on using colours, they were shown how to mix and apply colours on the surface.  Most of them worked without taking a break and were happy to take home two works on the day one.  The days session concluded at 4: 30 pm.

Day 2

Though the class was scheduled at 10: 30 am everybody were present at 10’o clock.  We began the session with a demo by a young artist Venkatesh who was assisting us in coordinating the workshop.  Later Senthil worked simultaneously with the participants, most of them choosed the same location as that of Senthil, they found it easy to imitate him while painitng.  I told them to watch him painting for half an hour and continue with their work as they was not much time.

Day 2’s painting experience was different because they were working on a canvas board.  Some of them had a doubt in composition where necessary inputs were given.   All of them were busy working, the only break they took was for a tea.  Senthil continued and completed his work, later he took turns to correct the participants work.  1’o clock lunch was served and they started working immediately.  Senthil demontrated them how to work in pallet  knife as well.  He corrected all of their work, he believed that participants would be happy to see their works on  wall.  By 4’o clock they all had finished their work one participants had to leave early as there was a emergency.  All the works were displayed, it was a memorable day for all of them, as they had captured the beauty of cubbon park on their canvases.

Study of Architecture

17th December 2011, Class No. 9, Study of Architecture.

The scheduled place was Archeology Museum which is located on Kasturba road, Bengaluru. 

We had 2 classes left, 25th and 1st 2012 being sunday  I did not want to postpone the one class, as there would be a long gap, therefore we had class on 17th and 18th December.  Some of them could not make it to the class as the timing were from 3 to 6pm.

As the wheather was getting cold, Venu started the session with a demonstration of the museum building, he took almost 50minutes to complete the work, everybody watched him carefully while painting.  After completing some commented that it was the best work by him so far.  

later some wanted to see the work of Venkatappa, I took them to the gallery where they admired the water colours and were amazed to see the scenes from Ooty which were done by K.Venkatappa a senior artist from Karnataka, they had a quick look and went straight to paint with lot of  inspiration.

Some of them were unable to finish the work as it was cold and chill, also due to bad light.

Class No. 10 was scheduled at Cubbon Park

The last class was scheduled at Cubbon Park, as we had cover all the necessary subjects the 10th class was all about their doubts, therefore everybody were told to come up with question were Venu answered by correcting their works, some wanted to know creating perspective, some had doubt in painting clouds, a few wanted to know how to apply textures and Vishanth wanted to know how to paint a steel object.  Venu solved there question by demonstrating.  Finally we ended the class at 1:30pm thanking Venugopal for instructing for 10 weeks.
