London Creative Club is pleased to offer portrait painting with award winning portrait artist, Lee Fether.
A four week course, which covers sketching portraits in proportion and achieving skin colour in paint. Including an opportunity to work from life, a great experience and foundation for future work. You'll benefit from a small class size in a friendly atmosphere.
Materials are included, paper, charcoal, canvas panel and oil paints. Tea, coffee and snacks are provided. The course fee is £150.
WEEK ONE - 3 hr class - 31 March 2023
We start by looking at the shape and proportions of the skull, and practice sketching a head in charcoal.
WEEK TWO - 3 hr class - 14 April 2023
This week we begin a portrait painting from life. With a model in front of us, we’ll study proportion carefully, and start to sketch and block in the painting.
WEEK THREE - 3 hr class - 21 April 2023
Continuing to paint from the model, we’ll explore the colours in skin and shadows.
WEEK FOUR - 3 hr class - 28 April 2023
We continue to paint from the model, to complete the portrait painting.

I was very happy with the painting I produced considering I have only ever done one portrait before this. I am really appreciative of Lee’s guidance and teaching. I feel excited about painting now instead of being nervous!
