Painting a Unique Original Face - don't miss it!
Thursday, August 25, 2022
Hello Creative Folks,
Let's get right to it...
SEPTEMBER THEME
I will be running my artists through a series of face studies, and parts of
the face studies, in order to pull together a Unique, One of a Kind, FACE that
is your own original.

Interested?
Get in touch with me quickly if you are interested, so I can fit you into one of my 3 weekly Zoom
classes. Week One for September starts next week - yep, that's Aug 29 and
31. See calendar below.
Here are a few examples of some of "my" faces that have evolved over all the
probably 1000s of faces I have drawn and painted over the years. I
draw often with ink, paint with acrylic and gouache mostly, and throw any
and every kind of mixed media into my creations that I feel like playing
with.

Portraits are fascinating in so many ways, some of them are irrefutably
self-portraits that emerge subconsciously, parts of our unique painted faces
are based on some of our own features.....or rejection thereof. Many
are influenced by our favorite artists, relatives...and the list goes on. We
will examine many painted faces by old masters as well as contemporary
artists - as well as build our skills to creating faces that FIT our
own aesthetic qualities and skills. Faces emerge, Faces evolve.....Faces are
Fascinating! Faces do not have to be realistic, think Picasso. They do not
have to be all smooth either - think Van Gogh. For every artist there is a
Face. Let's discover Yours!
Be prepared to draw and paint this month. And build a Face uniquely
your own artistic expression.
