“Drawing with Oil”
Oil "Rub-Out" workshop

3-Day Rub-Out workshop
$375
Prospectus for the Rub-Out
No one knows who invented the “rub-out” technique.
Art historians have dated the technique back to the time of
Michelangelo. The
schools at that time required its mastery before students were
allowed to explore color.
The traditional oil colors used are burnt umber and burnt
sienna (the two raw pigments can also be used).
The support used here is board or canvas.
It is then acrylic gessoed and sometimes textured, then
gessoed again. The whole
process is subtractive art and teaches the student light and dark
values by reversing their usual experience of developing the
illusion of form by first placing dark and working toward the light.
This wipe out, wipe off, rub off, or “rub-out” works from
dark to light, accomplished by the use of fingers and a
cotton/polyester rag, and is the next step in progression toward
full color painting.
There is virtually no brush work.
Use of this technique, usually “loosens up” the art student.
Such is a quality most artists aspire to attain.
