This 6 week class will guide students through the time honored traditions of layered portrait painting! We will learn about the range of materials and their application in a step by step painting process.
Indirect Oil Painting is a time tested methodical approach to painting in successive layers to achieve specific natural effects. Students will focus on both paint handling and drawing with value.
The students will begin with a full grisaille (black and white) underpainting, and then begin to build their color layers through mindful application of paint and medium. Our goal is a portrait with both structure and presence.
***We will skip the week of July 4th***
