Working from a live model, you’ll use the famous Zorn palette - just
three colors plus white - to create beautiful, naturalistic skin tones.
There are many benefits to using a limited palette, and the technique can
be applied to any kind of painting you want to do - landscape, still life,
even abstract!
The alla prima painting style, in which a work is begun and
finished in one or two sittings, while the paint is still wet, is lots
of fun and perfect for exploring the portrait in oils.
Our focus will be on seeing and simplifying the way light travels over the planes of the head, mixing color and applying it in a loose and painterly style, and gaining an understanding of facial features while capturing a likeness of the model. Instruction will be in oils, but acrylics are also welcome.
