In this class we will work on the early and most important stage of the portrait. Each class will consist of about three *starts*. We will focus on composition, accuracy of proportions, and value consolidation. The benefit of this practice is that the later stages of the portrait will come easier and be more enjoyable. We will work with a model each week, and change the head angle throughout the class in order to complete multiple block ins. We will use work with white and a dark color of your choice.
