Portrait Painting Lesson
Want to improve your portrait painting? In this lesson I show you my process for painting a portrait, starting from sketching the basic shapes of the portrait to adding color and detail. Through the painting process, I will also show how to easily mix skin tones using a limited palette. The lesson includes over 1 hour 15 minutes of painting demonstration plus instruction. The class is suitable for all skill levels, however some drawing and color mixing practice is recommended.
