Portrait Phase IV Preview

This course will expand upon your portrait painting foundational skills, and introduce you to the loose style and expressive edge work of gesture portrait painting.  These lessons will help you understand color and color mixing in a more instinctual way, as well as help hone your understanding of edge work and your ability to push and design from your reference.  Students will rely on gestural indication skills for features rather than rendering. This charismatic approach to painting is a wonderful way to “loosen up” your painting approach and work on expressive brushmanship, while simultaneously building your decision-making skills to become a more efficient painter.
