“Portraiture is a way of recording people. Their personality, character, status, the place and time they lived, the environment in which they live or simply showing beauty.”

Designed for those with minimal drawing skills, this portraiture course focuses on applying measuring methods, proportion, and alignment when depicting the human face and figure.

Using pencil, charcoal and pastel, students will work from a live, clothed model, capturing the face in simplified terms through basic structural studies of the face and skull as well as understanding the body and its form.

Tuiton includes both instruction fees and the model's fee.

Class size will be 6 to 12 students.

Workshop to be held at the Visual Arts Brampton Creative Studios, 1 Bartley Bull Parkway, Suite 10, at the corner of Highway 10 and Steeles Avenue in Brampton.
