4 Day art intensive
Join Rosso for an immersive 4-day workshop at Noho Photo Studio, located in the iconic SoHo/NoHo district of downtown Manhattan!
This is a great opportunity to paint with me & learning a proven method and artistic tricks to create beautiful paintings that blend Realism with Abstract!
This course is perfect for both beginners and seasoned artists
open to EXPLORE and incorporate NEW PERSPECTIVES into their work!
In the first part of the workshop, we’ll focus on abstract techniques through fun, experimental exercises designed to help you overcome creative blocks and unleash your full artistic potential. Once we’ve opened up creatively, we’ll dive into the techniques of realist portraiture, covering the fundamentals of classical representation. You'll learn an easy yet effective method to mix realistic skin tones for any complexion, and explore how to use value, temperature, chroma, and shadow shapes to create dynamic and compelling portraits.
Throughout the workshop, you’ll seamlessly integrate abstract elements with realism, learning how to connect these two visual languages in your paintings.
Key Learning Points:
How to create original compositions from reference photos and imagination
Techniques to develop captivating portraits that capture both the likeness and essence of your subject
How to incorporate mixed media (like gilding and metal leaf) for added texture and depth
Simple, effective methods for mixing realistic skin tones for any complexion
Mastering the entire creative process, from building a strong foundation to refining your work
Plus:
Plenty of live demos
One-on-one guidance throughout the workshop
Personal critiques and advice on your artwork and career
We’ll work primarily from photographic references that I’ll provide. This workshop is suitable for artists of all skill levels, whether you paint with oils or acrylics. It’s ideal for those looking to loosen up their style, as well as for those aiming to refine their technique and create more impactful, realistic portraits. Students are also welcome to submit a portfolio for feedback before the workshop begins (optional).
