Description

In this masterclass, we will touch on the principles of traditional portrait painting such as composition, tonal relationships and the importance of edges to add to the illusion of depth.

We will also look at colour and temperature in general and as they apply to the subtleties of flesh in particular.

A direct method of painting is encouraged that requires little in the way of drawing skills but focuses rather on the broad mass and then the gradual build up of the painting as the various elements are refined.

As a masterclass, this program is suitable for artists with experience in portraiture wishing to deepen their skill set. The session will be limited to 8 participants so book in to secure your place. Please note this session only accepts students above 18 years of age.

This masterclass will be held in our upstairs galleries alongside our 2025 VAS Portrait Exhibition. Observers are welcome!
