This 4-day course will develop your skills in, and approaches to, portrait painting using oils. It's suitable for all levels and is based in a lovely light art studio on our beautiful Falmouth Campus.Working from a life model each day, we’ll focus on teaching you to firstly draw and then paint a portrait from life using traditional techniques and materials, taking inspiration from painters such as Titian, Van Dyke, Velasquez and Reubens.
You’ll leave with a greater understanding of oil painting techniques, traditional approaches to charcoal portrait drawing, and mixing using a limited colour palette.
All materials you’ll need are included. This course is taught by Emily Roberts, a figurative painter, sculptor, and teacher whose work is held in private collections across Europe and North America.
Cost: £550, includes all materials needed.
