2/27-2/28/16, Egi Antonaccio, Abstract or Classic
Painting from Photography. All Skill Levels. Using
acrylics and various techniques, Italian artist, Egi
Antonaccio, teaches all levels how to create a
realistic or abstract rendering from photographs
and pictures. Learn to divide the light using
strokes of color with palette knives and brushes
with Egi, whose loose strokes create wonderful
detail. Participants will experience color mixing as
they work from photographs to loosen their style
and develop a new technique to enhance their
skills. Individual attention in any subject matter
will be offered in this workshop to bring your best
creativity to canvas. His approach to realism or
abstraction brings a canvas to life with refl ections
of light and offers students an incredible learning
experience. Painting with a palette knife and
painting quickly is more suitable for acrylics. The
experienced artist may use oils but don’t expect
to complete a painting as you would with acrylic.
Egi will open the fi rst day with a demo.

and color. The initial decision of what needs to
be in a painting and what doesn’t need to be
in the painting can strengthen your work right
from the start! Kami will be teaching you how
to best structure the landscape by learning how
to simplify the important shapes to create the
strongest carrying power in the piece. Day three
will be focusing on properties of COLOR - hue,
value, temperature, and saturation by working
from a limited palette of a warm and cool of eachprimary. You will learn a step-by-step approach
to seeing and mixing the relative color of the light
