WORKSHOPS STARTING IN MARCH 2019
Zorn Palette Portrait Workshop at Don Valley Art Group, Toronto, ON
9:30-4:00 Saturday/Sunday, March 9/10, 2019
Anders Zorn (1860-1920) is arguably Sweden's most important painter. Throughout most of his illustrious portrait career he limited himself to a very simple palette of just four tubes (Vermillion, Yellow Ochre, Titanium White and a blue black). By utilizing this seemingly basic palette, the decisions around colour, intensity and value become much simpler and perfect flesh tones are easily attained. Work in acrylic or oil (odorless solvents only please) or water soluble oils and work directly with professional portrait models.
