5-day Masterclass 'Life model Advanced'

Wencke Vinks gives a 5-day Masterclass 'Life model Advanced' of 4 until March 8, 2024.

The masterclass 'Life model advanced' was developed by Wencke Vinks for our eager students who, after the first life model masterclass 'From drawing to painting', had a taste for it and would like to continue.  The 'advanced' week is all about deepening, experimenting, refinement and efficiency.

Our aim is to fill your creative backpack even further with essential knowledge, tips, experience and insights for your painting path and future portraits!

Structure of the Masterclass​

​

During the week we will be working with an extension of the Zorn color palette to a life model. Wencke will also give daily life demos with an explanation of her technique. Participants will then watch and ask questions.​ The focus during the masterclass will be on the following points during this week:

​​

• Experimenting with different alla prima methods.

• Tips and tricks to add more character, realism and vibrancy to your portraits.

• Extra attention to detail in eyes, nose, mouth and ears.

• Painting techniques for hairstyle, clothing and jewelry.

• Instructive tonal value studies in charcoal.

• Learning to deal with time pressure.

• Brushwork.

• Interpreting the effect of light on the model.

​

Participants receive personal constructive criticism, as well as a detailed explanation. 
The lessons are given in Dutch (possibly supplemented with English).
