Douglas Flynt

10 Day Portrait Painting Workshop
June 7-18, 2010













This workshop will be an extensive look at the process involved with portrait painting, which favors the classical and academic sensibilities. The difficulty level is geared toward intermediate through advanced students.

There will be daily in-depth demonstrations/lectures ranging from approx. 1-2½ hours depending on the topic being discussed. The majority of each day will be filled with individual critique as students are allowed many hours to work toward the development of their own pieces.

Learn to see for shape, line, rhythm, proportion, structure and color along with how light interacts with form as we explore in-depth the whole of the connection between painting and seeing explained through metaphor, theory and application.

Some of the concepts that will be addressed are how to set up proportional relationships, blocking-in and then refining a drawing, color theory, how light on form affects our perceptions of color in its various components of hue, value and chroma, how to relate those components, mixing paint, setting up a palette layout, along with many other ideas.
