Beginners Egg-Tempera

About

The course will start with basic preparation of colour pigments with egg yolk and distilled water and looking at suitable surfaces to work on. We will then move on to explore different ways of applying the paint. We will look at artists who have used egg tempera and their various methods and finally, students will create their own piece, composed from studies, drawings and photographs. At the end of the workshop, students will understand the possibilities and limitations of the medium.
