About the event
Paint an acrylic portrait in just one day! To capture a likeness in paint and imbue it with expression and personality has long been an enjoyable and fascinating process for artists.
In this six-hour workshop with instructor Val Nelson, you will learn tips for blocking in, mixing skin tones, and keeping your portrait painting loose and painterly. Instructor will share examples of both historic and contemporary portraits.
Participants are encouraged to bring whatever project inspires them, be it the face of a family member or friend, a public figure, copying an Old Master, or even a self-portrait.
