The portrait class will be start with the basic understanding of the human face through drawing in the very first day. Then later we will learn the application of water color medium for creating a portrait. The focus of the class will be learning the basics of portrait painting techniques, head study, form, structure and proportion of human face. I hope this will be a fun classes. The portrait class will follow the form, tonality, values, layering, creating an illusion of three dimensional qualities through light and shade. The class will work as a group as well as individual portrait study on 140 lb arches watercolor paper. Participants should bring brushes of your own choice.
