If you want to draw or paint portraits from life AND photos, join Jim on Tuesdays. You'll learn how to see and draw/paint with accuracy, from life and, then, use that skill when painting from (color or black and white) photographs

The first and third Tuesdays, you'll work from life models. Jim will demonstrate his method for capturing a likeness and, when painting, how to mix and block in convincing and luminous color shapes

The second and fourth Tuesday, you'll work from self-supplied photo reference. Whether you decide to work from photos taken during the first two classes OR from personal images, Jim will help you tap the knowledge gained during the previous (life-study) classes to create a more finished and convincing portrait using photos.
