Class Description

Description

What you'll learn in this painting class:

Students will learn how to paint a portrait, or further develop their skills by oil painting for form, design, and color. Three days will concentrate on the values, the subtlety of form, how to get a likeness, and refining edges. The fourth class students get to put it all together while working from life. 

The last class also includes painting in front of a model.

These classes are taught by professional artists who have fine arts degrees. Instructors can provide students with as much information as they seek, so asking questions is highly recommended.

  • Choice of medium
