This 2-day workshop will introduce you to the medium of acrylic painting on portrait. Some experience is recommended but not required. After this 8-hour workshop, you will gain an understanding of composition, value and colors while learning how to execute a portrait from beginning to end. To take advantage of the entire portrait curriculum, we recommend attending both workshops in the same weekend.
