This 3 day workshop will focus on the fundamentals of drawing portraits and hands while working from live models. Both subjects present their challenges and often are what scare many people away from drawing people. It is my job as the instructor to present each subject in an easier and more logical way so that we can get past the scare and instead look forward to the challenge of creating portraits that encourage hands interacting with the face. Whether you are new to this subject or an experienced figure artist, this workshop will present tips and tricks that will increase your accuracy and help prevent unnecessary errors.
Students bring their own supplies. Supply list will be emailed by instructor.
