Paint looser, and more confidently during this three-day workshop with Oregon artist Sarah Sedwick!
Do you love painting portraits but struggle with capturing a likeness or mixing beautiful flesh tones? Would you like to work from photos but feel the resulting paintings lack that spark of liveliness? Top you want to loosen up your brushwork and be more free to experiment with color in your portraits?
Working from a live model, you'll use the famous Zorn palette- three colors plus white- to create beautiful, naturalistic skin tones.
There are many benefits to using a limited palette, and the technique can be applied to any painting you want to do- landscape, still life, even abstract!
The alla prima painting style, in which a work is begun and finished in one or two sittings, while the paint is still wet is lots of fun and perfect for exploring the portrait in oils.
Our focus will be on seeing and simplifying the way light travels over the planes of the head, mixing color and applying it in a loose and painterly style, and gaining an understanding of facial features while capturing a likeness of the model. Instruction will be in oils, but acrylics are also welcome . The workshop welcomes beginning to advanced artists, ages 15 and up.
A combination of demonstration, short exercises, and longer-duration paintings will familiarize you with Sarah's approach to the portrait. Instruction will be in oils, but acrylics are also welcome. Great for artists of all experience levels.
(*Note: I am often able to bring many fantastic paint and medium samples from both M. Graham and Gamblin for everyone!) www.sarahsedwick.com
