Female portrait Painting Tutorial – Yupari Fine Art
In this week’s portrait painting video we continue the painting started last time. The emphasis is on using classical “old master” inspired techniques to build a painting. Rather than simply “copying the photograph” we will be interpreting the visual information and distilling it down to simple patterns of color & form.
Here’s the video for the underpainting: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9kdhH826__4
