Oil Painting: How to Paint the Nose – Chris Fornataro
So I have made videos on painting eyes and lips so I thought I would do the same with the nose. In this video I discuss how I go about painting and understanding the nose. This includes the placement, structure, and color. The nose is in the center of the face so if you don’t get it right it can really hinder a good portrait. I hope this video gives you the information you need to strengthen your skills to paint better noses and better portraits.

Hi, I am the son of two artists and began painting in my hometown of Richmond, Virginia before I could walk. I was a rare combination of artist and athlete so I moved to Los Angeles in 2008 to play football for USC. I left the team my sophomore year to focus on painting and filmmaking, applying the same focus and discipline from my football career to my art. I primarily work in oils, and spend most free days painting “en plein air” in my new home of Sarasota Florida.
