Enjoy the luxury of taking three full days to study the details of portrait features, the most valuable part of a portrait study! Learn the techniques of master portrait painters by completing three small master copies of specific portrait features throughout the course of this workshop! Students will examine the structure and anatomy of the eyes, nose, and mouth as portrayed by a master painter and learn to observe the subtle value shifts, color choices and edge variety that allow Old Master portraits to look so powerfully realistic. Each day of this workshop presents a new opportunity for learning as participants paint a close study of one feature per canvas per day ending with a small trilogy of perfectly-studied anatomical features.
