In this course, students will learn to paint a developed portrait of the human head from life. Utilizing longer poses, students will have an opportunity to investigate the forms of the head alongside color. Painting alongside students, the instructor will demonstrate a direct approach that emphasizes light and form using a controlled palette and expands into higher chroma as poses progress.
