Portraits One Day Workshop in Harolds Cross, Dublin
A full day tutored workshop on the 25th of June in painting the portrait.
Painting portraits with a live model is challenging but fun -and the right time to start practicing is right now. This one-day workshop will be a great introduction to portraiture for those who have always wanted to try it but found other workshops intimidating or pitched at too high a level.
I will guide you through the process in an easily understandable way; and questions are welcome. As in all my classes, I’ll start with a demonstration and all participants will get personal attention throughout the day. It’s tiring work but we’ll have fun through the day.
What level painter should I be?
You should have some drawing and colour-mixing experience. If you’ve never painted before, you might find this overwhelming. If you’ve painted still lifes or landscapes before, you’ll be fine!
We’ll cover the following:
- Proportion
- Lighting
- Drawing
- The structure of the head.
- Mixing skin-tones and tonal values.
- Colour temperature.
- Composition
- Brushwork
25 June, contact 0862470737 for bookings and more info.
Location: Parochial Hall of Our Lady of the Holy Rosary Church
