Let's Paint Like Van Gogh: Self-Portrait

How to Paint a Portrait in Abstract Realism

A look into what some of our Advanced Painting students were getting up to this past academic year! You can find students working on painted portraits from life under natural light, as well as the drawing stages of students working on their final projects (portraits with the composition including hands)! Students featured: Daniel Zalla @danielzalla.art , Lukas Freudenberg @lukart_freudi , Sebastian Volak @sebastian_volak , Alyssa Skilnick @alyssaskilnick.art, Marcus deHaan, and Hanna Westin Skog

This was taken from a two hour class on portraiture looking at more traditional methods. This is a technique that would take weeks or months and so isn’t perfect in any sense, but it did help the students understand how it was done in the time we had. | The Artery Art Shop and Classes
