Portraits that have the greatest impact on the viewer are expressive ones, those that evoke feeling. Artists seek to represent the character and psychology of their sitters. We'll we paint our favorite pop stars in the style of those provocative artists that broke with the formal portrait traditions of the past. Think Sabrina à la Elizabeth Peyton or Cowboy Carter in the style of Mickelene Thomas!
We’ll discover how to bring the expressive portrait to life using light, color, and painterly technique.
Just a few of the artists we’ll explore during this session: Alice Neel, Amy Sherald, David Hockney, Mickelene Thomas, Francesco Clemente, Kehinde Wiley, Barkley Hendricks, and Elizabeth Peyton.
