Portrait Painting Workshop in Brooklyn


Hi Guys,

I'm teaching a portrait painting workshop in Brooklyn in November and I would love for you to join us!  Here is all the information about the class, as well as the supplies list and registration info.

Contemporary Portrait Painting Using Classical Techniques

Location: 231 Maujer Street, Brooklyn (one block from the Grand stop on the L train)
Dates: November 20th 6-9pm, November 21st & 22nd 10am-4pm $350

This three-day portrait painting workshop is a unique opportunity for students of all levels to learn the process of painting the portrait in oils using a full palette.

The course will center on the experience of painting from a live model and there will be a single, sustained pose throughout the workshop. Participants will learn how to achieve a better likeness as well as how to paint convincing flesh tones. Each day will include a painting demonstration, discussion and individual instruction at the easel.

The beginner will learn fundamental principles such as how to mix colors and render form modeling. The more advanced student will discover how to take their work to the next level and achieve the finish that they desire.  These tips can be applied to all future work and improve any painting of any subject.

Discussions and handouts will cover the stages to developing a painting, comparative measuring, proportion and structure of the face and features, as well as glazing, value, edges, composition, light, and modeling with color temperature.
