Description
Painting portraits are an essential part of earning an income in commissions for mostly all successful artists. Painting a pet portrait can be an excellent source of additional income. These portraits still require capturing the pet's character for a more desirable result. This course is designed not just to paint the subject shown here but can work with all types of animal portraits.
You can complete this type of painting from start to finish and learn the techniques and tools required to achieve a professional result. The course includes understanding a good subject image and, in some cases correcting flaws. You will learn how the importance of underpainting will go a long way in preventing your painting from looking like a photograph. When you complete the underpainting, you will move to the blocking phase, where large areas of color are added and refined through multiple passes. The course is finished by detailing specific areas to achieve an overall painting effect.
Each lecture is divided into phases and split into easy-to-follow demonstration videos. These videos break each part of the painting into manageable sections, which can be done at your own pace. These sections are sometimes revisited during multiple sittings to go into more detail.
Who Should Attend!
- This course is for all artists who want to produce professional looking oil paintings of animals.
