Art Escape Academy

Marcos will begin by introducing himself and telling you a bit about where he studied and which artists have inspired him along the way. He will then talk you through the materials that he uses and recommends when painting. Macos will demonstrate drawing techniques for portraiture, using charcoal and graphite. From there he will take you through two useful monochromatic portrait painting studies, which will help you to effectively understand form and value when painting. During his final painting exercise, Marcos will demonstrate how he goes about painting the human form in watercolor using a full color palette. You will have access to all of the photo references Marcos uses during these demonstrations, as well as a selection of reference photographs which Marcos has chosen for you to paint from and practice with. Once you join this workshop you will have life-time access and can re-do this course whenever you want to. You can also share your progress in the Community Section, and connect with other like-minded creatives!
