In this session we will be using vibrant oil pastels to paint an interesting and harmonious portrait. The focus of the lesson is on the use of colour, both in the under-layers and itn the top layers. We will demonstrate how to use a secondary colour scheme of purples and oranges to capture the shade and highlights on the face.
We start our acrylic sessions off with a painting of a beautiful black bear. We will look at the benefits of using an underpainting so that the colours peep through the final piece and give thought to which colours we will use as our base coat and why.
This session is about creating a stylised piece of artwork, taking inspiration from the 19th/20th Century French artist Henri Rousseau. The painting shown here was painted in 1909 and is called ‘Two Monkeys in the Jungle’. We will look at how he achieved depth in his paintings and create our own versions.
