9238 - Painting from History: The Dutch Portrait

Course Description

Self-Portrait by Rembrandt van Rijn

Create an oil portrait using techniques from the golden age of Dutch masters. We move from set-up, lighting and composition, to drawing study, underpainting, overpainting, and the concept of “Stofuitdrukking” (the rendering of materials). Each week builds off of the previous as you create powerful, nuanced work. Some painting experience is recommended.
