Hazleton Art League, PA - 2 day portrait painting


  • Philadelphia, Pennsyvavia USA (map)

This will be a two-day long pose oil painting workshop with a live model. Both days the instructor will demonstrate leading students with what they will work on each session. To start off, students will learn how to get better structure and likeness through the practice of abstract angle relationships as our drawing foundation. Students will then build upon this by modelling the surface of the face with a basic flesh tone value range. This is the basic method upon which more elaborate portraits can be developed. Also discussed will be adding color to our flesh tones, how to start this process and how to think about it based upon classical formulas and also pure abstract color perception.  We will end the class with developing the features further to create a focal point for the portrait.
