Painting the Portrait in Watercolor
with Mario Robinson

June 7 - 9, 2024
9 am to 4 pm every day.

Join us for a three day workshop in which we'll explore painting the portrait using watercolor with Mario Robinson.  

Painting The Portrait/Figure in Watercolor will focus on painting the live model, who will maintain the same pose for the duration of the workshop. Students will execute a detailed drawing of the model and will learn how to employ a monochromatic block-in to properly identify the values of the subject. The class will culminate with a full application of color, using thin glazes. The objective of the workshop is to demonstrate how a methodical approach increases the depth and sense of realism in watercolor paintings. The instructor will demonstrate each day and provide personal instruction throughout.

Workshop takes place in GACA’s studio, located in the Pierce Arrow Building, (4814 Washington Blvd, Suite #322 St. Louis, MO. 63108)
