Painting Portraits with Terry Lynn (Intermediate+)

Spend a creative and inspiring day with artist Terry Lynn Spry as you dive into the essentials of portrait painting. In this hands-on workshop, you’ll explore techniques for capturing realistic flesh tones, building strong compositions, and bringing character and life to your subjects.

Working in acrylic or oil, you’ll start the day with guided exercises using reference images from the instructor and your own photos, then end with the exciting challenge of painting from a live model.

Terry Lynn’s supportive, step-by-step approach makes this an enjoyable learning experience for painters with some drawing or painting background who want to sharpen their skills in a focused, energizing session.

Model fee of $15 is payable to the instructor at the start of class.
