The Portrait In Pastel
Instructor: Brandon Brownlee
Dates: Fridays, from October 22 – November 19
Time: 10:00 AM – 1:00 PM
In this workshop you will learn how to develop a finished pastel portrait. Starting with a charcoal under drawing, we will be layering hard and soft pastels to create depth and nuanced flesh tones. We will also be touching on the structural anatomy of the skull and facial features in order to build a life-like portrait. This class is for both beginner and advanced students. We will be working from photo references; please bring a variety of photos to work from.

Painting Creatively From Photos
Instructor: Souby Boski
Date: Wednesday, November 10
Time: 11:00 AM – 4:00 PM
Most artists use source photos in some capacity when they work, whether to jog their memory of a particular place and time or to record specific visual details to incorporate in later pieces. In this workshop students will learn to paint in a creative, personal, and expressive way using reference photographs - freeing them from copying. Learn to dismiss the sense of obligation to show exactly what is depicted in the photo and feel free and inspired to manipulate the composition, assuring vitality and making the painting your personal creation. Bring several canvases and reference photos.
