Horse and Mantle oil painting by Sadie Valeri - Sadie Valeri Atelier

This painting is created with Direct Method on linen panel, starting with a careful preparatory drawing to create a solid foundation for developing the painting to higher degree of detailed realism.

In this course Sadie shares still images, silent video clips, and written descriptions to demonstrate all the steps. This is not a video course, as the video clips are brief snippets and most the instruction is in writing.
