Oil Painting Classes: Lesson 1

Last week Thursday I began an oil painting class at Frank Joubert art centre in Cape Town. Its an 8 week course taught by Anne Foale. For the first lesson all that was required of me was to spend the entire 2 hours drawing a green pepper, which you can see below.

Below are some of the things I needed to purchase for the course. Some paint brushes, three primary colours and white, and some turpentine. The oil paints are a Winton Phthalo Blue 30, Winton Permanent Rose 49, Lukas Lemon Yellow 210, and Lukas Titanium White 208.
