An oil painting marathon that is anything but dull
A two-day oil painting marathon
There is a moment when reality dissolves and a dream begins. White sheets turn into clouds, a mysterious forest rises behind the pillow, and somewhere far away the towers of a fairytale city shimmer…
On the two-day marathon "Fairytale Dreams" we will paint an atmospheric picture built on a beautiful contrast: the tender, almost glowing image of a sleeping child and the deep, fantastical world of their dreams.
The main thing — you do not have to repeat my painting. For the marathon I have prepared more than 20 additional references with different versions of fairytale dreams. You will be able to choose your own story, mood and magical world — and, using the knowledge gained on the marathon, create your own unique painting.
In two days you will not simply repeat the work after the teacher, but will get the tools to create a subject of your own — tender, mysterious and a little magical.
"Fairytale Dreams" is a painting about the world that exists only until you wake up. And for everyone that world will be their own.
At the end of the marathon you will have the result in the form of your own oil painting, which will look professional

This will be a work not only about a portrait. We will learn to create a story inside the painting — to join figure and landscape, reality and fantasy, soft light and deep dark shades so that the whole space is perceived as a single dream.
During the marathon we will look at working with tender skin tones, white fabric and its reflected light, expressive light, complex cold and warm combinations. And in the fairytale part we will allow ourselves more freedom: lively brushstrokes, patches of color, the shimmer of light and details that only hint at a distant magical world.
