Many artists struggle with painting the eyes in portraits and figures. We tend to paint our symbolic idea of eyes, rather than what eyes actually look like.
Working from the model, we will look at the shape of the eyes themselves, how they are placed in the skull, and the surrounding anatomical structures. Our goals will be to size the eyes correctly, and accurately see their shape while rendering a profile, three-quarter view, and straight-on view of the model.
Bring the painting or drawing media in which you are most comfortable. Dry or wet media, black and white or color are welcome.
Note: This class is about structure and seeing. We will not be delving into color in this class

 Painting the Nude in Oils Using the Zorn Palette with Joanne MehlInstructor: Joanne Mehl Tuesdays, 9:00 AM - 4:00 PMClass Starts on Jul 30, 2019Location: Downstairs Studio A July 30 - August 13 (3 six-hour class sessions)
Many artists struggle with rendering flesh tones when painting the figure – too many color choices can lead to confusion and frustration. But working in a more limited palette allows greater control in color mixing, and also increases the painting's color harmony.
Working from the live model we will sharpen our figure painting skills while using the Zorn palette of Titanium White, Yellow Ochre, Cadmium Red, and Ivory Black.
We will use the Zorn palette to help you:
- Simplify color mixing. With fewer colors, it’s easier to choose the best color to add to any given mixture.
- Better understand how your colors work together.
- Achieve color harmony. Fewer colors means fewer color variations.
- More easily see and control values.
- Learn to recognize and use warm and cool color temperatures.
