Some people think that if you can paint the human head, you can paint anything.
This workshop will focus on painting the head and achieving a likeness.
We’ll explore intuitive measuring techniques, retinal vs sculptural techniques, ways of seeing and mixing the color you see, and we’ll explore ways to make the head feel more three dimensional. We will explore techniques and exercises that we can take with us in order to continue practicing these ideas on our own, after the workshop is over.
