Course Description

Join Master Artist and Mentor, David Lagevin and learn how he paints ‘animal portraits.’

David’s unique layering techniques will help you capture the essence of any animal while keeping the colours vibrant.This technique uses pure colour effects by mixing colours directly on the surface. Then you’ll learn how to use transparent and opaque colors to keep everything clear and crisp.

Supply List

David will be discussing the materials used and show some techniques and procedures used in his art. He will be doing two painting demos of animals as well. It’s suggested you watch and ask questions during the course rather than try to paint along.

For those that would like to try to paint along with the demos, the ‘Emerging’ artist collection of paints by Tri-Art will give you all the colors you will need.

Instructor Bio
David Langevin wanted to be an artist from a very young age and so when I graduated high school I went on to study Fine Arts in college and university. I did not learn a lot about how to be a better artist or painter, and they taught us nothing about the professional life of an artist and how to make a living in the trade.

After graduating university I spent years studying materials and techniques of painting and in particular, the methods of the Old Masters of the Renaissance and Baroque periods.

When I developed my courses and workshops for artists I decided that I would focus on teaching all of the stuff that I wanted to learn in school:  Being a master of my craft, and; understanding the strategies and skills required to make a living selling my art. I have also learned that the best way to learn almost any skill set is to learn directly from an accomplished professional in the field – a Master (or Sage).

Taking workshops and getting mentoring is the way to go for any artist wanting to be a better painter, and a more successful entrepreneur.
