Spring 2010 Oil Painting Workshop: Portrait Painting from a Photo

Instructed by
Matthew Mancini
Academy of Realist Art

April 26-30, 2010

10:00 am to 4:00 pm
Richmond, Virginia
Tuition: $600

We are pleased to announce the scheduling of our third Academy of Realist Art workshop in Richmond, Virginia. The October workshop, "In the Studio of Sargent", was a tremendous success, and popular instructor Matthew Mancini will be returning this spring.

This new five-day workshop focuses on creating a painted portrait using a photo reference (subject to instructor approval). Participants learn the key principles of what information to keep and what to omit, as well as concepts of form, value, shape, and finishing processes. Students of all levels are welcome, however, beginners will use a limited palette while more advanced students will use a broader palette. A handout will be provided prior to the start of the workshop to outline photo requirements.

Registration is closed.
