Portrait Masterclass

at Minerva Workshop

CANCELLED

This one-day course is led by Leo Crane, award-winning animator, painter and tutor. He holds an MA (Distinction) in Animation and trained in painting under Maggi Hambling CBE.

Join Leo for a masterclass in portraiture. Taking inspiration from artists past and present, Leo will guide you through a series of exercises to develop technique and encourage creativity. Working with a portrait model, we will look at anatomy, mark making, composition and narrative. After lunch, we will work on a long pose with one-to-one support. By the end of the day, you will have created a final piece to take home.

Whether an experienced artist or new to portraiture, you will be encouraged to push the boundaries of your practice and take risks. Charcoal and pastels will be provided, but you are welcome to bring watercolours, acrylics or other materials, should you wish. Please note that work will need to be taken home with you at the end of the day.

Tea, Coffee, Herbal Teas and biscuits and other treats are included. However please bring your own lunch.
