We hope you have had a great weekend and although it is Monday we want to propose new activities for next. Sunday August 5 takes place at the Nicanor Piñole de Gijón Museum an educational painting workshop for families.
With the title of "Spoiled Portraits, Dad, Mom and I" this family workshop is presented that wants to approach the art of portraits, working with light and shadow projections and fixing the profiles of the participants with simple techniques of charcoals and waxes.
The Nicanor Piñole Museum is a highly recommended space to get to know the work of this Gijon painter, and perform some very interesting activities for families, such as this painting workshop. So they inspire us on the web to get closer to learn and have fun doing portraits:
For the ancient Greeks the painting was born from absence. To illustrate this founding myth, it is said that a young woman from Corinth, sorry for the inexorable departure of her beloved to war, and thanks to the effect of a lamp, was able to quickly fix her shadow on the wall at the time of leaving. The painting, and in this case the portrait, is born from an absence, from the shadow left by the one who moves away, perhaps forever.
He didactic painting workshop for families in Gijón It is next Sunday, August 5 at noon, from 12 noon to 2 pm, and is free. We hope that new dates are scheduled for the future, because the idea is great. Are you or are you going to lose?
