Life Painting Classical Portrait with David Gray at Arts in Rome Published on 20 April, 2018

Arts in Rome, an ARC Approved ™ school is immensely pleased to receive internationally renowned award-winning artist, David Gray, who will be teaching his remarkable oil painting techniques. To enjoy the workshop you need to be a member of the Arts in Rome Cultural Association.

In the workshop, David will teach the application of the painting medium as he applies it in his own professional work. This five day workshop will cover: underdrawing and underpainting, overpainting, glazing and making minor adjustments as necessary. In addition students are encouraged to ask any other questions applicable to the art making process. In past workshops David has discussed other topics such as: composition, personal art making philosophy, and many other related topics.

"Though I strive to keep the class fun and upbeat, we move fast and cover a LOT of material in a short amount of time.  It’s really going to benefit the student who has a firm grasp of drawing and oil painting basics."

The workshops run from May 14 – 18, 2018 at Arts in Rome 1 Via Pasquale Villari, Roma, Lazio 00100
