Students with all levels of experience are welcome to join Figure Painting. We will cover all the basics to painting the human body including proportion, anatomy, and color mixing. Instruction will be given through demos and one-on-one guidance. Students will hone their skills during one long pose throughout the day. Chalice will teach in oils, but students are welcome to paint in acrylic if they prefer.

Note: This workshop will include a 30 minute lunch break at 12:30pm. Please be sure to bring food, as Berkshire Art Center is not closely located near anywhere to purchase lunch.

(In the event that BAC has to cancel a class session due to weather or facility emergencies, please note the pre-scheduled makeup date for this workshop will be Sunday, September 17. More information on our policies for cancellations can be found HERE.)

Please note proof of vaccination is not required and masks are optional, but encouraged. Please review updated COVID Safety Plan HERE.
