This class will explore the portrait. You will bring a portrait to work from on the first day of class. We will begin with the skull and build the portrait from there. Once the linear foundation is created, several different shading techniques and types of dry media will be introduced and explored. You will finish your portrait using the shading technique and dry media of your choice.
All supplies will be included.
