PASTEL PORTRAITS
3
days $165.00 limited to 6 students. $50. down
payment to secure place in class.
This class
introduces the basics of portraiture with emphasis on getting a likeness and
using the pastel medium. We will work with photographs and from a live model.
Lighting, posing, light and shadow, color and value will be covered. We will
start thinking about the anatomy of the head and thinking three-dimensionally.
This is a wonderful way to start learning about portraits, even if you will
eventually be working in other media. This class would be best for those who
have had at least one pastel or drawing workshop.
