This three day intensive workshop will be held in our beautiful North light studio.  Students will focus on painting the portrait from a live model using oils.  Sandra will demonstrate how she approaches a portrait as well as help the student problem solve, observe and question what they see. Working with various techniques such as grisaille underpainting, scumbling, glazing and direct painting students will concentrate on capturing form and light in the portrait, look at color relationships, analyzing structure vs anatomy and how to treat edges. Daily discussions and critiques will guide the student in finding key elements in the portrait. The bigger the student’s vocabulary the more impact the portrait will have to the viewer.
