This course will inspire you to create unique compositions of New York City’s iconic architecture and vibrant urban life, guiding you to paint them in an abstract realism style using oil paints.
Led by Shima Rabiee, an architect and professional oil painter, the course offers a step-by-step approach to drawing and painting, with both group sessions and individualized one-on-one instruction. You’ll explore every stage of creating a cityscape painting, from the initial sketch to the final brushstroke. Suitable for all skill levels, this course will teach you how to capture a compelling reference photo and translate it onto canvas. Additionally, you’ll be introduced to extra painting tools and techniques designed to enhance your creative process and unlock your inner creativity!
