Join me for an intense, 4-hour workshop at CASSart Flagship store in London to learn from mixing realistic skin tones to create a portrait in oil.

The session begins with an exploration of colour mixing, using a range of pigments to understand how warm and cool hues interact and how to adapt your palette for different complexions.

In the second half, I will guide you through the portrait painting process step by step. Working from provided references, you’ll learn how to translate your colour mixtures into paint, develop form and light, and create your own expressive study — finishing with a small portrait to take home.
