LIMONI IV
THREE MEETINGS
March 19-21, 2026
Friday, Saturday, and Sunday
Two meetings per day:
10:30 a.m. and 3 p.m. eastern time
In this intensive ONLINE painting class, we’ll create our own oil paint from Italian pigments. Once we’ve created our full earth color palette, we’ll prepare gradient studies in order to better understand the colors we are working with. Next, we’ll sketch a composition of lemons in our respective studios. Finally, we’ll create a still life of lemons. Each of the three days will include group discussions based on the images uploaded by the participants, guided by Lucy MacGillis. Lectures on the color yellow in painting, the lemon in the history of painting and demos from MacGillis’ studio in Italy will also be included. We will discuss our paintings of lemons in group discussions/critiques over zoom.
Prior to the class, participants will receive a kit from Zecchi in Florence containing Fabriano oil painting paper, the pigments of the earth palette, walnut oil, and a palette knife.
The cost of materials from Zecchi is included in the workshop fee.
