Alla prima is a painting technique, used mostly in oil painting, in which layers of wet paint are added to previously applied layers of wet paint. Capturing the figure believably in oil paint can be a difficult task, but doing it in one sitting may seem almost impossible. Yet this is exactly what we will be doing in this workshop. You will embark on the journey of learning about oil paint and practicing accurate color mixing, values, and forms of the model to help develop your ability to paint "alla prima."
