Realist portrait and figurative artist Denise Laurin will guide students of all levels toward success in traditional oil portrait painting.

Students will learn proportion basics, value, color mixing, color temperature and oil technique. Bring two or three 8” x 10” photo references of your subject’s head and neck area. Choose a photo with a range of values and clear detail. One will be chosen for painting. New and continuing students are welcome. Click here for supply list.
