Masterclass

The Figure in Context Masterclass with Chelsea Lehmann 9.30am - 4.30pm | 12 – 14 January 2018

Chelsea Lehmann has a Bachelor of Visual Art (Hons) from Adelaide Central School of Art (1998) and was a visiting scholar at Glasgow School of Art, Scotland (1999) courtesy of the Ruth Tuck Scholarship. She has a Master of Fine Art (Research) from the College of Fine Arts, UNSW (2007) and is currently a PhD candidate at UNSW Art & Design supported by the Australian Postgraduate Award.

Her current work focuses on retrieving layers of images within the painted surface through scientific imaging techniques such as x-ray and infrared and physical erasure. chelseajlehmann.com

This three-day masterclass led by Chelsea Lehmann is centered on painting the figure from life in an elaborate still-life context. Two models will pose amongst objects of various size, shape and colour.

Participants will develop several studies emphasising composition, cropping and the spatial attributes of the set-up. Beginning with an underpainting in Burnt Sienna acrylic paint, the painting will be developed using oil or acrylic paint with individual direction from the lecturer.

Over the course of the masterclass some objects will be removed while the models stay in position. Conceptually, we will focus on the idea of ‘presence and absence’: in practical terms this will involve processes of addition and removal, rigorous editing, and the exploration of a broad range of painting techniques. The course will be introduced with a brief lecture.
