UNDERPAINTING ON COPPER
Instructor: Patricia Rice • www.PatriciaRiceStudio.com During the Baroque Period, Dutch and Spanish masters painted small scale works on copper plates. What they didn’t know then, but what we know now, is that copper is the most archival surface on which to paint in oil! This unique surface, with its warm glow, creates radiant paintings, especially when bits of the copper are left exposed. Students in this class worked from a live model in Rice's home studio using burnt umber and white oil paint to create the portrait. This underpainting can stand on its own as a painting.
