Portrait Painting Intensive is a 3 day workshop intensive with Perth fine artist Rachelle Dusting, designed as a step-by-step guide to creating a portrait similar to Rachelle’s painting style and blending the perfect skin tones. Develop an understanding of tone, value and temperature within oil painting through a realistic painting technique.
This workshop is a great introduction to the basics of oil painting in mixing colour and how to use oil paint materials, and is both beginner and intermediate friendly.
