This workshop will focus on Portrait Painting Fundamentals. The instructor will demonstrate on day one how to Block-in directly on the canvas with the brush. No previous drawing or transfer is necessary. The painting will be developed in 2 to 3 Layers: Block-in and Form Pass and Overpasses. Diana will explain each step with demos and lectures, including the structure of the head, comparative measurements, color properties, Light and form. A long pose will serve the student to slow down and learn how to work from observation and achieve likeness and naturalism.
A fundamental part of the workshop will focus on understanding our palette and characteristics of color: Hue, Value and Chroma. Diana will lecture and demo each day and provide individual critiques.
