Galvez atelier DAVAO

    DRAWING 1.0

    Skills-based learning is one of the most effective methods for teaching not only skills in drawing but also in the analysis of artworks.
    Students will learn to recognize the natural world in abstracted form and will be able to break down the pictorial field in abstracted lines, textures, shapes, and values. We at the Atelier believe that honing the student’s visual perception increases his or her visual intelligence regardless of age.
    In this course, students will learn a more disciplined drawing process and cultivate a workflow aligned with the atelier approach. The student will learn the ways lines express ideas and be more attuned to planar forms and tones. The student will be able to distinguish the elements of art, learn to identify and correct drawing errors, find accurate angles, and combine lines to form mass.

    painting 1.0

    After learning the fundamentals of drawing using pencils, the student will learn to render forms using the brush. He or she will be introduced to the medium and the tools of oil painting. The Galvez Atelier Traditional Oil Painting  have several components.

    Gaining Control Over Color Mixing

    The student will learn to work using limited colors to gain a more efficient understanding of the color palette. He or she will learn processes in achieving color harmony and balance by identifying color groupings, distinguishing color temperatures, and understanding contrasts. The student will also increase his or her sensitivity to tonal values and composition. These processes will allow the student to paint efficiently, a skill needed when the student eventually uses other  fast drying media like acrylic. 

    Building up Underpainting

    Fine art works in the canon of art history should serve as exemplary models not to intimidate but to emulate. At Galvez Atelier, the student will experience the time-tested methods of classical masters. Underpainting provides the foundation for applying multiple layers of colors in succeeding processes.

    Layering Colors Made Easy

    Color is light. Our summer art workshops teach how each layer of colors channels light. The student will learn the correct way of applying layers of colors. This segment shares similar principles in watercolor painting

     Portraiture is a captivating art form that traces its roots back to the Egyptian period, long before the invention of photography. These timeless works do more than merely capture a person's physical likeness; they can convey an individual's essence, their aspirations, and the mood they wish to project.

    In this new workshop, we invite you to explore the depth and complexity of portraiture. Rather than simply copying photographs, you will learn to masterfully place tonal values on the planes of the face, capturing the very essence of an expression. Delve into the classical techniques employed by the great masters, as you construct the human head with precision and artistry.

    This is your chance to elevate your portraiture skills and unlock a deeper understanding of this timeless art form. Join us and embark on a journey of creative exploration. Spaces are limited, so reserve your spot today.
