OIL PAINTING WORKSHOP

August 3-7, 2024— $850

The Conceptual Portrait

with Dorielle Caimi


In this five-day workshop, Dorielle will teach students how to paint a conceptual portrait using classical and contemporary painting techniques in oils. After the portrait is rendered, she will guide and challenge students to add to, destroy, cover, and/or remove elements in the students' paintings to encourage a conceptual reveal in the portrait. This workshop will address the formal elements of representational painting (form, blocking, value, color matching, edges, proportions, and composition), but will also encourage students to cross over into the world of conceptual art using representational portraiture as a springboard.

This workshop includes a lecture, a demo, and one-on-one guidance. All levels welcome!
