Portrait Painting

Service Description

A portrait class offering students the opportunity to paint in oils, acrylic, gouache or watercolour from a single pose. Open to students of all abilities. This class will be based on one pose every class, giving each student the chance to devote each session to one or more pieces. We will take a broad approach to painting the model, whether it be with more traditional techniques or to pursue your own intuitive direction to painting. We will also be looking at the work of the masters to help guide us through. This class will also include ways to explore different techniques, how to mix colour and apply paint. Students will need to bring their own materials. Some materials can be bought at the Art Stables to get started and advice can be given. (Use of any other mediums other than paint is also encouraged).
