I'm in the third week of a new portrait painting class, to learn oil painting. This has long been a goal of mine.
In weeks 1-2, instructor Ismael Checo had me use only 2 colors (burnt siena and ultramarine), plus white. Today, I got the OK to put out more color . Yikes! The model ended up looking like he has a bad sunburn:)
Figuring out proportions, mixing colors and using the brush is a huge challenge. Mega respect for artists who can paint in oils. Anyway, we'll see how it goes next time!
