MASTERING THE PAINTED PORTAIT - with Tony Robinson (Ireland) and live studio model
This Oil Painting Masterclass will explain techniques of the successful 'alla prima' portrait, demonstrated by Tony Robinson who will be helping participants aiming to produce a satisfying 'head study' or a 'head and shoulders' in 4 hours painting time.
The course will include:
- Setting up the model
- Laying in, blocking in and working up
- Tones, colours, edges and brushwork
- Choosing and mixing flesh colours
- Common alla prima pitfalls
- How to critique your own work
- Making adjustments
Tony will paint along with you for a fun day of portraiture.
Use of a camera will be included.
Some basic drawing skills are recommended for this course but Tony will endeavour to adapt the teaching element to suit a range of experience and ability. Students using oils will benefit the most from this workshop, but acrylics will also be acceptable.
