This class series breaks down a portrait into manageable chunks.

February 3rd: Planning our portrait with choosing our subject and getting introduced to oil pastels and color pencils. It is encouraged to select someone with a different skin tone than yourself. Jess will be illustrating Maya Angelou. The base image will be taken from a projected image to save time and get into the nitty gritty of applying color and definition.

February 10th: Skin Tones! Color mixing and application. The base of the portrait. We also choose a background color and fill in this class.

February 17th: Eyes! ALL ABOUT THE EYES. Easily the most important part to any portrait. This class can be taken individually out of the series.

February 24th: Hair in Oil Pastel. Hair can be tricky and there are a lot of textures to choose from. We will be focusing on illustrative style with this class.

March 3rd: Lips. This is a fun class to attend all on its own if you miss the others. We are illustrating lips. Highlights and shadows galore! They are a pretty fun thing to draw.

March 10th: The finishing stage of our portrait. An all over evaluation and tweaking of our artwork. The last class of the series.
