Handmade Oil Paint Workshop with Leonard Yang - Sunday mornings at The Painting School in Brooklyn

If you’ve always wanted to get the most out of color and texture in your oil paints, this 5-week, Sunday morning handmade oil workshop with artist and paint maker Leonard Yang is for you!

Ever wondered how impasto is made, why certain colors are more saturated than others, what makes paint matte or glossy and how certain paints have a more flowy consistency while others are thick and buttery?

In this workshop Leonard will break down everything that goes into oil paint. Using various historical to modern day pigments we will explore how these interact with different drying oils, waxes, stabilizers, and fillers. You’d have lots of fun making various pigments into paint using muller and slab which you will learn to tube, store, and save for future use!

Towards the end of the workshop, we will de-mystify water-mixable oils using a tempera grassa technique. Eventually, you’ll gain the confidence in manipulating paint into behaving the way you want it to, opening up a myriad of ways to work creatively with paint. You’ll be amazed and surprised at the potential that paint has while learning that oil paint is more than just simply pigment ground in oil. We will be working with natural materials, all of which will be provided, without the use of any solvents. You’ll get to bring home tubed paint (20ml) of at least one of each color listed below.
