Painting Your Muse:

GROWTH

APRIL WORKSHOP

Join me for a Month Long Workshop where we explore creating an expressive portrait in oil!

The theme is GROWTH. Last month, we focused on PHASE ONE of the process - the Underpainting. In April, we continue moving through our creative practice by focusing on PHASE TWO and THREE - the blocking in and layering. Using our project from March, we will continue the story and work towards creating a successful portrait in oil.

In March we spent time focusing on PHASE ONE - the UNDERPAINTING in depth.  Breaking down the process and taking time to understand each aspect of the process.  In APRIL we continue with our figurative pose and explore PHASE TWO and THREE - Bliock in and adding Layers.  

Want to see PHASE ONE? Join the Painting Your Muse Community or you can purchase MARCH’s Worlshop below

As the March Session is currently still in session, below is a peek at where we are in the process of the underpainting. By the end of month we will have the entire canvas blocked in with additional background, a floral and nature element and more!
