Create a portrait painting inspired by your favorite iconic woman!

Together we’ll go through the steps from inspiration to final painting in this class. I’ll be using Photoshop as my main tool in the class, sharing my tips and tricks with it, but feel free to use whatever medium you’d like!

You will:

Learn tips on how to research your subject and find good reference photos.
Sketch multiple studies to get to know your subject.
Learn how to highlight a person’s accomplishments and values through your sketch of them.
Learn how to draw women of all different ages and backgrounds.
Use what you’ve learned to create a final full color painting in Photoshop.

Please share your creations with the class and on social media by tagging me on Instagram @anndanger! Include a little bit about why you chose the woman you wanted to honor through art, so we can all learn about more iconic women from each other’s work.
