Expressive Portrait Painting with Ruth Fitton


In-Person and Atelier Live Workshop with Ruth Fitton

WHEN | October 14-16 : 10am-5pm ET daily

WHERE | East Oaks Studio, Cary, NC

Ruth Fitton joins East Oaks Studio for a boutique 3-day workshop exploring expressive portrait painting. This will be a small workshop, limited to six in-person attendees, as well as a virtual demonstration through Atelier Live.

The course will focus on the creation of a fully developed portrait from life, beginning from a strong narrative composition, through to refining a precise likeness.  We will study the use of colour mixing and edge-work to create an exciting illusion of form, and brushwork as a means of portraying character.

Morning sessions will consist of a short lecture followed by a painting demo, in which Ruth will explain fundamental concepts and demonstrate how to apply them.

Afternoon sessions will give in-person students an opportunity to put into practice what they learned in the demo, and receive feedback.

This exclusive workshop is limited to six in-person students, who will receive a significant amount of one-on-one instruction from Ruth.

Registration coming soon!

WHEN | October 14-16 : 10am-1pm Eastern Time daily

WHERE | Online, through Atelier Live
