    Description

    2 sessions: Saturday & Sunday, Jan. 24th – 25th, 10 a.m. – 4 p.m.

    Paint Grand Traverse artist Cheryl Perkins is visiting Traverse City to offer this special 2-day portrait workshop!

    For intermediate to advanced oil painters (acrylic is ok), this workshop's objectives include composing and painting portraits that capture realistic accuracy in light, color, and shape, along with loose rendering methods that offer the artist a range of interpretive and personalized expression. Cheryl will demonstrate realistic to more "artful" portrait solutions. Foundational perspective and anatomy will be covered briefly before moving on to the core curriculum. Cheryl is also a College for Creative Studies adjunct faculty member and finalist in multiple art competitions. 

    • SUPPLIES REQUIRED: Click here for the Supply List.
    • Bring a reference photo for the portrait you want to paint - humans and animals are ok.
    • For Intermediate-Advanced oil painters. Acrylic painters are welcome too - please note the instructor will be using oil.
    • A 1-hour lunch break will be provided each day. Please bring your own snack lunch. Limited refrigerator space is available.
