LEARN A DYNAMIC APPROACH TO PORTRAITURE THAT BRINGS DEPTH AND ENERGY TO YOUR PAINTINGS
Portrait Painting explains how to portray people in oils and acrylics by looking beyond likeness to light, shadow, colour and form. Instead of copying, you’ll learn to see abstract shapes, experiment with colour and create portraits that feel alive, expressive and meaningful.
JAMES BLAND is an acclaimed figurative artist who has a long association with portrait painting. His work is known for its lyrical, narrative style, which evokes a feeling of depth and mood. He is also an experienced and popular teacher. James is a member of the New English Art Club and Contemporary British Portrait Painters.
