Ajax Creative Arts
Ajax artist, Allan O’Marra will teach you how to paint a realistic portrait and achieve an accurate likeness using the “grid” method. With a photo image he will provide—or one of your own choosing—he will instruct you on gridding the reference and canvas and beginning your portrait with a precise pencil base drawing followed by instruction on acrylic under-painting and then final paint application. This workshop is appropriate for all skill levels from novice to pro. A moderate art supplies list will be provided —that includes acrylic paints, brushes and a canvas, that you will be required to purchase. Workshop will take place on Sunday, February 4 from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. (with lunch break).
Learn how to paint that realistic portrait you’ve always wanted to create with the help of an award-winning, seasoned professional.
