Join me for an intensive two-day workshop where we will explore the basics of oil painting from a photo and delve into the intricacies of conveying personality and expression in oil paintings. Focusing on fundamental elements like composition, proportion, and colour theory, I will demonstrate how to create lifelike skin tones and use various brush techniques in your work.

Throughout the workshop, participants will engage in technical discussions on oil painting materials and techniques, with lots of one-one-one guidance helping them toward achieving an accurate portrait. We will be using a limited colour palette called the “Zorn Palette” used by 19th century master portrait painter Anders Zorn. 

The workshop will include a live demonstration, offering an insider’s look at effective techniques used to create a successful portrait. By the end of the two days, participants will gain valuable insight into timeless oil painting methods learning how to create a portrait from start to finish.
