AUSTRIA

Alpine Voyage

 

Considered by many to be the CROWN JEWEL of locations in Prof Phil's 13th annual run of seminars and workshops. The owner, manager and staff at the Marien Hof are renowned for treating the artists like KINGS and QUEENS. The Marien Hof  "4-STAR" hotel is less than 1 hour from the old and stunning city of VIENNA, where culture, art museums and music abounds. We will visit many of the great museums and also some of the great artists of Vienna, like Ernst Fuchs, De Es Schwertberger, Daniel Friedmann, Michael Fuchs and others.

Enjoy the gorgeous countryside. Enter into a world of well-being with its alpine mountains, fresh air, green meadows the rivers and the clean water, which springs from the mountains all around.

Leave behind everyday life and enjoy the pleasant warmth of the steam bath and the sauna, have a massage or simply use the large indoor pool or explore the hotel and village parks. Gain new power to go hiking up the mountains. Most of all, simply thrive on the knowledge, networking, joy and inspiration that is generated by the creative community that gathers here like a little United Nations of Artists!

OLD MASTERS - NEW VISIONS

AUSTRIA 2010

Painting Seminars in the "Classic Mische" or mixed-technique of egg tempera and oil painting

AT THE MARIENHOF HOTEL

Reichenau, Austria

 

AUGUST 1 - 29, 2010

2, 3 and 4 week options

 

In this seminar on the "classic mische", or 'mixed-technique of egg tempera and resin-oil painting we practice under-painting on an egg emulsion ground to achieve the astounding  effects of painting achieved only through a division of labor in the building of a picture. The participant will discover an excellent and sound method that is fast and lends itself to absolutely any style, or means of expression. We combine the best advantages of the Italians by building a picture through a limited palette to create an underlying color unity, while adding the Flemish and German advantages of the 'optical greys', the neutral tones and luminosity that can only be attained through modeling and hi-lighting in egg tempera white and over painting in layers and glazes of resin-oil color. NOTE: RETURNING ARTISTS from previous seminars with Prof Phil may continue their line-of-study in the technique and methods they have been individually adapting and modifying with the professor, including the use of an egg emulsion ground or 'imprimatura'.
