Portrait from Life

A full day with a sitter, working on likeness through structure rather than detail.

What we cover

Morning is drawing and measurement; the afternoon is a single alla prima study in oil.

Materials

Oils, medium and a primed panel are provided.

Who it suits

Some drawing experience helps. You should be comfortable with a brush.

Your instructor

Katja has painted from the same north-facing studio for eleven years and teaches in groups small enough to work over your shoulder.
