Art Educators Summer 2013

Portrait Painting:
Open and Closed Grisaille
July 8 - 12, 2013
9 a.m. - 4 p.m.
$550 ($350 rate for Art Educators)

This workshop presents principles essential for the portrait artist: construction of the head, simplifying masses of the head into basic planes, anatomical landmarks, breaking the portrait down into simple values, and the mechanics of light on form as applied to the head.

All of the exercises will be done either monochromatically in a brown paint (grisaille), or with a limited palette of colors as the student learns to build forms with relative values in the lights. The art educator will come away with specific exercises to develop his or her skills and the skills of their students. The exercises will develop from short “gestures” of the head to a 6-9 hour portrait.

Art Educators summer 2013
Portrait Painting:
Closed Grisaille into Color Study
August 5 - 9, 2013
9 a.m. - 4 p.m.
$550 ($350 rate for Art Educators)

The Closed Grisaille into Color Study Portrait Painting workshop will build on the concepts taught in the first portrait workshop, but will focus on developing a portrait in limited and full color. The exercises presented the first morning will review what was covered during the previous week, to ensure that new students are prepared for the continuing exercises.

The focus will be on developing a closed grisaille or “duo-tone” into color. The concept of “color study” will be presented with progressive demos and handouts, and the student will have the opportunity to develop a portrait over a 2-3 day period into a color portrait.
