Want to learn how to paint watercolor portraits? In this class we're going to take a look at how to paint aged skin. This is the first of a few classes which will focus specifically on 'senior portraits', and in this class I'm going to go through a couple of basic watercolor techniques and show you how to apply these to painting lines, wrinkles and textured skin.

In this class we will;

Choose a limited color palette of only 3 colors (+white)
Quickly go over how to approach sketching the lines/wrinkles before we start painting
Go over a couple of basic techniques and practice using these for painting lines and wrinkles
Paint a final study where we'll be applying these techniques + a few more for creating textured skin

If you're new to watercolor, you may want to check out some of my other portrait classes first as I go through everything from sketching, to color mixing and rendering in more detail.

But no matter your skill level, if you're interested in painting aged skin in watercolor, I encourage you to join me for this class as I truly believe it's better to choose your subject out of passion than based on expectations when it comes to your skill level - and I hope and believe that even if you're a beginner, you'll be able to take some knowledge or technique with you from this class.
