I am excited to welcome Dominique Medici back to teach a portrait and figurative painting workshop at PFA Studio. 
Dominique is widely respected for her beautiful portraits and her teaching ability. I know she is good because I have taken several workshops from her myself.
In this Portrait and Figure painting class, we work from a live model and learn how to demystify portrait and figure painting by breaking down the pose with a manageable and systematic 4-step process. We learn how to accurately mix any color by working with a limited palette of 7 colors. The primary palette will deepen our understanding of the relationship between hue value and chroma. We will learn how to mix flesh tones in 3 simple steps. The First Day will be long figure poses with one model. The Second Day will be portrait painting in the morning and clothed figure in the afternoon.

​Why Attend this Workshop?
● Watch Dominique demo and show you a process of painting in clear and consecutive steps.
● We will use the basics of color theory to learn a simple color mixing process.
● Learn to mix any color accurately and consistently in just three steps.
● We will learn a 4 step process to break down the portrait into manageable steps.
● Use a chromatic primary palette of 7 colors designed to help you master color.
● Use these skills to create two paintings by the end of the weekend.

Who is this workshop for?
● All skill levels but some previous experience is a plus. Skill level is not that important, although basic drawing and color theory skills are a plus.
● It is for any student interested in receiving instruction and willing to put it into practice.
