Portrait Painting in Oil

  • The Arts Center in Orange 129 E. Main Street Orange, VA USA (map)

Join artist Marjorie Perrin for this course from the VMFA statewide program. Discover how a portrait is so much more than simply recording proportions; instead, it can be one of the most expressive drawings you can create. Identifying the simple patterns and forms that are the basis for a well-designed portrait, students will learn through demonstration to use form, value, and line to develop expression. Students should bring a large photo (at least 8″ x 10″) from which to work. Photos taken in natural light with clear contrast are recommended. This class is great for beginners and those with experience.

This class is FREE but space is limited please RSVP using form below OR send us an email.
