Portraiture

What is Portraiture?

Portraits are works of art that record the likeness of a live model in an interesting costumes and scenes.

Some portraiture is also created by artists purely for the sake of creating art, rather than working on commission. The human body and face are fascinating subjects that many artists like to study in their personal work.

There is no instruction for this group. All levels and mediums are welcome. However, please bring low odor products for turpentine, etc.  The first meeting you attend is free!

    The Monday Portrait Group meets every week to paint a portrait from a live model.  You are responsible for whatever medium you wish to work in and the supplies you need.  WAL does have some studio easels if needed.  No previous experience is necessary, just an interest in painting, drawing, or sketching a live model in our three hour sessions.  We collect a $10 / session model fee when you attend.  There is NO instruction, but you are free to interact with the other artists and share information, ask questions, and socialize.

    We encourage those attending to be WAL members, but guests are welcome!  There is no registration cost, but please provide contact information so we can get in touch with you if we need to.
