This 2 week intensive course will guide students through the painting process described by 18th century artist and writer Thomas Bardwell as "The perfect painting method". Used by a number of painters from the Renaissance on, in the 20th century as traditional painting practice declined, these methods and secrets were ignored and almost lost.

For the first time ever in western Canada, there is an opportunity to learn this method first hand with Martinho Correia, instructor at the Angel Academy of Art in Florence. All steps of the painting process will be explained, beginning with canvas preparation, drawing stages
and subsequent painting layers to a final rendering of the image.

Students will be able to chose from a variety of images ranging from the the 16th to 19th century. The class will consist of individual and group critiques, demonstrations and an introductory lecture.
