This 3-week Webinar will feature demonstrations of portraits painted in oils. While painting I will speak about the processes used, exploring working with layers creating depth, including ‘grisaille’ and alla-prima painting. There will be slide presentations of portraits, both historical and contemporary.
The portrait is an area of art that I have long held a fascination for. I am looking forward to discussing the various elements of what makes a portrait, and I want to include many artist influences along the way. This webinar will offer you ways to gain confidence with your paint handling while painting portraits.
Week One: Character and Expression
Week Two: Engagement and Presence
Week Three: Abstraction and Figuration
Painting -
Easel
Table for palette and solvents
Canvases or boards, various shapes and sizes, prepared for oil painting
Palette
Palette knife
Brushes – I use a mixture of hog, synthetic and sable. I like long flats and rounds mainly but will also use filberts and sometimes use the fan brush for softening.
Paints -I advocate a gradual collecting of oil colours rather than having to purchase every tube. It is good to experiment but you need time with the pigment to get to know it a little.
My minimum palette consists of the following;
Titanium White
Cadmium Yellow Pale
Alizarin Crimson
Cobalt Blue
Paints cont. In the demonstration I will likely use some of the following but I do not think you will need to use exactly what I will be using.
Example of an extended palette; In addition to my minimum palette (see above)
Titanium white, Genuine Naples Yellow Light, Aureolin Yellow (Cobalt Yellow), Indian Yellow, Cadmium red, Rose Dore, Ultramarine, Cerulean Blue, Cobalt Green Deep, Viridian Green, Emerald Green.
Rags/Kitchen Towel (for cleaning and ‘disrupting’ the mark)
