Tuesdays, March 8 – 29
9 AM – 12 Noon (4 classes)
Portraits are much more interesting when they’re expressive and we will create expressive self portraits in charcoal. Many of the great masters used themselves as models and that’s exactly what we will do while looking and learning from a variety of master self portraits. To do our own, we will use mirrors to examine our features closely and draw from them. For our large finished portraits, we will take several expressive selfies and draw from our printed photos, our phones and our mirrors. Studying and drawing our own faces will teach us much about the art of portrait drawing!
