Spring 2025: Portrait Drawing & Painting with Lucas Bononi

GCA • 1519 Decatur Street Suite 201 RidgewoodNY  11385 Organized by Grand Central Atelier

About this event

Course Description Light, volume, and color are crucial elements of the artistic world. In this class, we will investigate these concepts with portraiture. Participants will have the option of either drawing or painting the live model with an emphasis on accurate observation. The class will facilitate the drawing and painting process by breaking it down into digestible steps. Participants will begin with a linear block-in that will allow for more proficiency in the following rendering stage. The biggest question in the rendering stage is: How does the physics of light on form differ from our perception of value? Through each step of the way ,here will be individual instruction to guide each artist, as well as demonstrations to illustrate the methodology. The goal will be to complete a portrait by the end of the 30-hour pose. With permission from the instructor, you may have the opportunity to do more than one portrait and switch spots as long as it follows spacing guidelines. All levels are welcome!
