About This Course

During your first Session, you will learn how to block-in the head and set-up the color scheme.  After the first session,  you will learn how to develop the head by the process of ‘window-shading’ – beginning at the hairline and working your way down the face as you refine the drawing.  Lastly, you will then focuses on developing your bravura brushwork.

 

The workshop is open to both oil and acrylic paint.
