Do you want to jazz up your portraiture by adding a few new elements, new colours, new effects?
In this one-day class, you will learn how to turn a beautiful portrait into an edgy, balanced portrait with an abstract flair. Colour and value are the key to success in this exciting and fun workshop.
Beginning with the reference picture, Oksana will show how you can move from a sketch to a vivid painting. You will learn painting tips on composition and colour schemes, linework, layering, developing values, creating dynamic colour contrast and so much more. You will take home a finished painting.
This class suits intermediate to advanced level artists.
