In this 4-month mentorship program, we’ll focus on mastering foundational skills and gradually applying them to different subjects, helping you become a well-rounded artist. Each month builds on the previous one, blending technical growth with artistic vision:
February: Begin with understanding color relationships, temperature, and form through studies with a limited palette and simple objects like spheres. You’ll also explore light and shadow, complementary colors, and color dominance.
March: Focus on composition and accuracy using a still life of an apple. You’ll learn how to compose, measure, block in color, refine values, and work with edges. Glazing techniques will also be introduced.
April: Build on your skills with a floral painting, working on dynamic compositions, layering colors, and capturing the essence of flowers.
May: Apply your technical skills to portraiture, focusing on proportions, light and shadow, and painting lifelike skin tones.
You’ll meet weekly via Zoom for live class sessions, receive detailed feedback on your progress, and have access to all mentorship recordings and resources for a year—or as long as you remain a mentee. This program blends technical training with your artistic vision, setting you on a path to long-term growth.
