This class is for those who are fascinated with capturing the likeness and character of a person. From observation of the live model, we will examine the effect of light on form, practice color mixing techniques to achieve realistic and nuanced complexions, and discuss the use of atmosphere. While the primary medium is oil painting, participants are welcome to use drawing, pastels, or acrylics. Regardless of your stage of development, specific information will be given to you through each phase of creating a painting. All students will be given individual attention to help reach your personal goals. Be prepared to work hard, make new friends and best of all have fun.
