"Capturing Soul and Spirit: Painting the Portrait and Figure from Life"
3 Day Workshop
This workshop will focus on painting beautiful portraits from life. We will discuss the ways to capture a likeness using gesture, form, edges, values, and clean color. There will be an instructor demonstration each morning, followed by one-on-one instruction in the afternoon. Live models will be used for figurative work.
Some drawing experience is strongly recommended if you wish to attend this class, as we will be diving right into color and Anna will share her approach to painting the portrait alla prima, or “all at once.”
Anna is an articulate instructor who shares her entire thought process while she works. Whether you are new to painting portraits or an advanced artist looking to overcome a creative plateau, Anna will be able to spur you forward in your artistic journey. Space is limited to 15 students so sign up early.
$375 per person (Space is limited to 15 participants. Please register early)

How to compose strong and eye catching paintings that will be noticed from across a room or a gallery
-
How to see correct value within color, which is a significant challenge for beginning and intermediate painters

Learn classical exercise as a vital jump start to accelerate your growing skill and its’ place in your arsenal

The importance of starting with a limited palette and how to grow beyond it into expanded palettes
The first day of the 3 day workshop will focus on “How to Draw like a Painter” as a means of exercise work to bolster your painting skill. You can expect to finish several projects and exercise work during the 3 days, then leave this workshop with gained skill, excited to continue with learned exercise and a specific plan for future projects and growth, aimed at continuing to grow in your skill, further strengthening your painters arsenal even after the workshop.
