*****CLASS CANCELLED*****

This is a three-day workshop; 1PM to 4PM Weds 7/15 to Fri. 7/172020.

PORTRAIT WORKSHOP: The workshop is intended for all levels and will provide individualized assistance from the instructor and daily critiques. Paul will demonstrate portrait painting and capturing a person’s likeness. The workshop is for Oil or Acrylic artists.

Students will learn to create a portrait likeness, simplify values, understand paint edges, and control composition. Organizing your palette to mix realistic colors, values, and temperatures for different skin types will be also be covered.

Students should bring their own quality photos as reference. A good 4” x 6” or 5” x 7” photo will be fine. I don’t encourage school or commercial portrait photos because they usually lack character. Try taking your own photo reference and have prints made at a local pharmacy or Walmart etc………
