Expressive Portrait Painting Workshop
This pre-recorded workshop is a fun opportunity to try a new approach to painting the portrait. Paul's technique involves using a palette knife to spread thick layers of oil paint, creating texture, energy, and movement within the piece. Paint along or watch as Paul creates a portrait in his signature style from start to finish in two hours. Developing your own individual style/approach will be encouraged. No artistic experience is necessary!
