Register

This one-session in-person class is an introductory course to portrait painting using the oil medium. No need for any prior experience – you simply need the desire to learn how to paint portraits. You will explore new techniques focusing on portraits (form, proportion, and value), eventually combining all three to create a finished portrait oil painting.  All supplies will be included in the course fee. Please note: This class will occur in person at Root Division, located at 1131 Mission Street in SF.
