Sundays Mar 15 - May 10, 4:00-8:00pm
(No Class Apr 5)

8-week Portrait Sitting

Each evening will feature a 3-hour sitting in the same pose for 8 weeks with a professional art model. Class is book-ended with 30 mins of setup and discussion time at beginning and end of session. Elizabeth will occasionally demo to illustrate the conceptual tools necessary for developing a painting or drawing.

For beginning/intermediate students, Elizabeth will walk you through the foundations of the academic process of drawing and painting the figure from life. Due to small class size, you will be able to develop and target level-appropriate goals for your current artistic development. Drawing is strongly recommended for students seeking to gain control over this crucial stage of the process.

For long-term and advanced painting students, emphasis will be placed on pushing your painting further through aesthetic and technical choices to create a successful final impression of our sitter.

Space is limited to 8-10 students.

• Sunday Evenings 4:00pm – 8:00pm

• Beginner - Advanced

Elizabeth welcomes artists of any stage into her classes, but please note that the information presented is typically on a more challenging level. Beginners are very welcome, but you may be encouraged to focus on drawing or limited palette painting to sharpen those skills up before approaching the quagmire of full color oil painting. This is for your long-term enjoyment and benefit!
