If you love watercolours and have always wanted to make a portrait, but did not dare because you are afraid of mistakes or maybe you don't want to spend a lot of time developing your portrait with pencil first, this is the class for you!
This class is about making a face in profile in a free manner and exploring skin tones using watercolours. I will give you a few tips on how to place the features of the face and then playfully develop our portrait. We will talk about values and how to apply them depending on the skin tone. We will be working in a fun exploratory way as opposed to an exact one. Creating your portraits in this manner gives you room for playing and experimenting! The result? Playful unexpected portraits! There are two full step by step portraits in profile, each facing a different direction and using two different skin tones. You can choose which one you would like to start with, you can then take a break and try the other one after a few hours or the next day. You don't have to do them both at once but making them both will give you PRACTICE! I have added a skin colour mixing chart under resources, or if you feel you need a more in depth explanation, check out my previous class here on Skillshare:Expressive Watercolor Portraits, creating fresh modern portraits.
