This class is a chance to slow down and spend time looking at paintings together.
Each week, we’ll focus on a different aspect of how paintings work: observation, proportion, space, color, edges, surface, and eventually the more elusive ideas of taste and what makes a painting last. We’ll look at a range of artists and images, compare them, and talk through what we’re seeing.
For those who want to go further, there will be optional readings to engage with between sessions, as well as optional drawing-from-painting exercises to better understand these ideas through practice.
Join our weekly conversations with paintings at the center. No pressure, no prior experience needed!
The class is meant to be a mutual learning experience, where conversation helps deepen how we see.
