Description

More than a photograph, portraiture brings an image of the sitter to life. Fine details and impressions of personality radiate from the surface, producing a subtle narrative. To be able to create a portrait, to do it well, is to leave something of that person for later generations to feel as well as see. Larry Downs will introduce you to this art form. He will give students the guidance they need to begin their journey in portraiture. Several types of media will be demonstrated and utilized by participants in this four week class.
