Oil Portrait Painting

INSTRUCTOR: Caroline Carlson
DATES: Saturday, Feb. 13

CLASS IS FULL.

Create a beautiful portrait with professional artist and Northern Exposure XXVII winner Caroline Carlson. Caroline is a passionate and focused instructor who will use her years of artistic experience to teach you how to use oils to create unique and stunning portraits. In the morning you will walk through selecting the correct paints and colors, how to properly darken colors, and the importance of color temperature. After a lunch break, Caroline will work on adding color to your portrait and work on modeling the form.

Caroline will have gessoed panels on hand for $5 which are needed for the class. You may also pur-chase these on your own. Please bring your supplies to this class. If you need supplies, the Bonifas has kits prepared for a $7 fee. This class will be held in person. Masks and social distancing is required.
