Your new skill will really stand out from the crowd and open up new opportunities for you.You Can Look Forward to Mastering These Techniques…Portraits are so challenging because there is little wiggle room. If you paint a landscape and a tree doesn’t look 100% like your reference, no one will notice. But if you paint someone’s portrait and it doesn’t look like your model, you are in trouble.What’s more, in portrait painting you can’t change the composition or position of elements.If you’re painting a landscape and you need to move a tree to achieve a better composition, no problem. But if you paint someone’s face, you can’t just move an eye or the nose by an inch. That’s why portraits are challenging but also extremely rewarding. It’s also why many artists tense up when attempting portrait painting. They get scared of making mistakes...So it’s extra important that you have reliable techniques that help you navigate this challenging subject, and help you keep loose and soft effects. In Expressive Oil Portraits, Bill lays out several techniques that’ll help you create breathtaking, expressive portraits, such as: Laying out a painting without outlines (achieve an accurate, yet loose and spontaneous look)How the big masters achieve soft, broken, and lost edgesThe puddle technique for paint mixing (never overmix your paints again!)How to develop a painterly conceptual framework that guides you as you paintHow to paint convincing skin tones in light and shadow What's Exciting About Expressive Oil Portraits With Bill Schneider?Expressive Oil Portraits teaches you the key to loose paintings.
