a. WS08 - The Soul of the Matter
Two-Day Workshop | Registration opens 1/19/2026 12:00 PM EST
The strength of a composition often lies in its simplicity. Using a limited palette, Corey will address how he achieves the soulful essence of his approach to the figure. Students will be guided through the process of creating a figurative painting that focuses on design and tension. Students are encouraged to use a very limited palette of pastels that focus more on differing values than color. Live model on the first day, to photograph as reference material for the second day.
NOTE FOR ALL IAPS WORKSHOPS: You must bring your own portable easel, and a board to support your paper. The room will be set with chairs which can be moved around to suit your preference. You can stand at an easel and use the table for your supplies, or you can bring a table easel and sit to work. Rubbing Alcohol will be provided for the students' use.
IMPORTANT: Please bring a plastic or cloth sheet to place under your easel, or table, to protect the hotel's carpet.
