New!!! Glen Orbik "From Gouache Head Painting to Picture Making"

Great news!!! Glen Orbik and Laurel is teaching a new class at 3Kicks, "From Gouache Head Painting to Picture Making".

Description
From conception to finish, a comprehensive class. Gouache, used opaquely for finished illustration, is also an excellent training tool for oil and other mediums (even digital).

Beginning with a strong emphasis on the Head, instructors will also demonstrate & guide the students through the step by step procedures of Picture Making. The process will include the use of Photography (lighting & directing models), Composition, Thumbnails, and Color Roughs to craft better Story-Telling , all the way though to the finished portfolio piece. This fundamental procedure is applicable to both illustration & gallery work.

Students will work from photographs. For the beginning to advanced painter, previous tonal Head Drawing highly recommended. Instructor approval.
