How the worshop works
Lesson 1. Underdrawing (1 hour plus homework). During the first lesson students will make an underdrawing for the portrait using charcoal and canvas as a surface. Sergey explains during online meeting how to make the underdrawing. Students do the underdrawing by themselves after the video lesson and send back to Sergey their underdrawings (photographs). During the second lesson Sergey corrects the underdrawings and explains how to do the underpainting.

Lesson 2. Underdrawing (1 hour plus homework). During the second lesson students will make the uderpainting in oils using 1 color (burnt umber) and turpentine. In the beginning of the second lesson Sergey gives critique on the previous stage (underdrawing) and explains how to do the underpainting.
|
Lesson 3. Blocking in (1 hour plus homework). When the underpainting is finished and dry students start blocking in with the entire palette. Sergey explains during a video meeting how to work with the colors, which mediums and brushes to use. As always in the beginning the artist talks about the results of the previous step and answers the students' questions.
