Workshop description

This three day workshop will teach students how to paint the portrait with oil paints from a live model. Kerry will demo each morning in order to lead the class with what students will work on for the day. Each day will build on the previous day.

The first day will focus on drawing and getting a likeness through proportions and basic anatomical structures. The second day will focus on modeling the surface of the face with flesh tones and the introduction of color. The third day color will be incorporated into the rest of the painting and finishing will be addressed.

Students will leave with a three day portrait painting and a greater understanding of how to build a portrait from start to finish using sound traditional methods.

Supply list provided upon signup.
