04.01.2022 Our next demo: Wednesday 4th November 7pm Alla Prima Portrait - Oils with Christian Holmes Christian Holmes is a talented figurative artist who teaches at the Julian Ashton Art School. He has a keen interest in classical drawing and painting techniques with a focus on portraiture. In his work he strives to capture a likeness of his subject quickly which imbues the image with life and light. Christian will demonstrate a method of painting an alla prima portrait in oils fr...om a reference photo and will show how to simplify the drawing process using a limited palette to achieve nice light effects and harmony. We have ensured there will be plenty of space to distance attendees correctly so please email CHAS now to reserve your spot. [email protected] See more
