Art Classes

for Adult

Portrait

Intensive express-program for beginners

Come to practice, discuss, and explore!

We draw in oil or acrylic paints, simple pencils and charcoal on canvas and paper. To attend this Program you do not need special skills. Upon completion of the course, you will be able to practice and improve your skills on your own. Each session is a combination of theoretical and practical parts. The program is divided into 2 parts. The First part is basic knowledge: a lot of practice, history and theory with a visual series. The Second part: application, combination, and development of skills and the last task is a Portrait on a free theme or Self-portrait. We meet once a week, try not to miss classes. The program is very intense, and includes a system of discounts for completing all homework. You take your Artwork home, or you can donate it to the studio Fund :)

Important

  • If circumstances allow you to come to class 5 minutes earlier, then do it! :) You will have enough time to prepare yourself and tune in to the Session :)

  • Before the Session, I will ask you to put on an apron to protect your clothes. But still please draw in clothes that you don't mind getting dirty, or maybe you have some clothes you don't like :) The paint does not wash out of clothes, unfortunately.

  • Do your hair or take your hair clip with you so that your hair wouldn't distract you, and you wouldn't touch it with your hands in the process of drawing. But the good news is that the paint is washed off the body and hair.
