(Please note this class has been postponed from February 4th to February 11th so there is still time to sign up!)

Students with all levels of experience are welcome to join Figure Painting. We will cover all the basics to painting the human body including proportion, anatomy, and color mixing. Instruction will be given through demos and one-on-one guidance. Students will hone their skills during one long pose throughout the day. Chalice will teach in oils, but students are welcome to paint in acrylic if they prefer.

Note: This workshop will include a 30 minute lunch break at 12:30pm. Please be sure to bring food, as Berkshire Art Center is not closely located near anywhere to purchase lunch.

(Updated February 2nd: In the event that BAC has to cancel a class session due to weather or facility emergencies, please note as the pre-scheduled makeup date is now being used for this workshop, students will be notified via email about any additional cancellations and polled on a new make up date. More information on our policies for cancellations can be found HERE.)
