A Fun Portrait Lesson with a Regular Student
The rain kept us indoors today… so instead of painting on the beach, we turned a one-to-one lesson into a playful exploration of portraiture.
We worked not with outlines, but with shapes and space… light and dark… texture and smoothness. It’s amazing how a face comes alive when you stop copying lines and start truly seeing.
It felt nostalgic, like rediscovering those timeless fundamentals the old masters used — yet still full of fun and discovery.
Most of my sessions are small and personal like this, though I also work with couples, families, and even large groups — my biggest so far was 450 people creating one artwork together.
Sometimes the rain closes one door, only to open another.
