Day 2 - slide show, talk and discussion on portrait techniques followed by a demonstration showing glazing methods. You will then work on your own painting to produce a tonal picture, using glazes, in readiness for colour.

Day 3 - interactive session to explore painting styles followed by a demonstration showing colour mixing and impasto techniques. You will then complete your portrait!
