Oil painting class

I have been teaching oil painting classes at the Cedarburg Cultural Center as of lately, we have been working on an exercise, which is great for painters at any level of skill to try.

I have been teaching my students to focus on the very subtle changes in tonal values that help us to achieve a realistic attempt in recreating, with paint, the subject at hand. which, in this case, is this wonderful loaf of bread, avocado and a tasty glass of beer. I have posted some of the steps along the way.... (below)
