The Portrait Series continues with Intro to Portrait Painting. This month we will learn the basics of oil painting while continuing to build our understanding the human head. Various painting techniques will be covered including but not limited to: various ways to begin an oil painting, safe studio practices, oil transfer, simplifying the head and color mixing. We will focus on capturing a likeness with sophisticated color and tone. Come gain confidence and accuracy in representing the portrait in oils!
Since May has 5 Wednesdays this year, we will meet for class on the first four Weds of the month. If there is enough student interest, the last Wednesday of the month can be used as an open portrait painting session, to give you more opportunity to practice what you have learned.
Working from the live model, you will develop a deep understanding of the human head. We will continue to examine proper proportions, structure and basic anatomy as well as use multiple drawing and painting techniques to represent the portrait. This class series will strengthen your ability and understanding of the human head whether you are an absolute beginner or an advanced student. Each monthly class is limited to 8 students.
