Check back to follow class online


The January session for portrait drawing is full for Sunday morning, start date Jan. 6th.

I am planning on putting information on-line on this blog and posting student work week by week. We have a great range of artists, from complete beginner to professional and from young to old. Stay tuned, should be fun to see people's work.

Drawing is great for many reason. It gives artists a chance to see shapes and values and not have to deal with the complexity of color. When doing a direct portrait study in paint there are a lot of things to keep track of, values, shapes, temperature, edges, placement, composition, shifts of color.....
Here is a quick 6 x 8" oil study, side profile in oils.
