Vicki Penny-Rohner will teach a two-day oil painting workshop Sept. 10-11 from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. at Volcano Art Center’s Niaulani Campus in Volcano Village.
The workshop will help intermediate and novice painters understand the medium and how to use tools effectively to get the results you want. Students will learn to mix colors, use different mediums to achieve various effects, and learn to layer color to bring depth and luminous richness to their work. Throughout the two days, students will learn to create form using values and light, and recognize, understand and apply the elements of design and composition to improve their work. Students will also be working with a pallet knife as well as brushes, learning to create rocks and lava effectively.
Penny-Rohner has been teaching art for 15 years, and her work is in the State of Hawaii’s permanent collection. She has been featured in magazines and has won numerous awards throughout the United States. She is the artist in residence at the Fairmont Orchid where she teaches weekly classes.
Cost for the two-day workshop is $100 or $90 for art center members. Students will need a small canvas, paints and brushes. A supply list will be provided.
