You have the option of signing up for 2-day Portrait Painting, 3-day Figure Painting, or receive a discount by joining us for all 5 days of Portrait and Figure Painting. Each workshop is designed to be an immersive experience where Mustafa will share his invaluable insights and his unique painting technique. Working from live models, students will explore color, tone, tools, mark-making, anatomy, and individual emotion and expression. Students will be working from a live model. Model fees are included in the workshop fee. There will be a one-hour lunch break each day.
