WHEN | May 2-4 : 9am-4pm Eastern Time daily

Ruth Fitton joins East Oaks Studio for a boutique 3-day workshop exploring expressive portrait painting. This will be a small workshop, limited to six in-person attendees, as well as a virtual demonstration through Atelier Live. The course will focus on the creation of a fully developed portrait from life, beginning from a strong narrative composition, refining a precise likeness, creating a luminous and exciting painting.  We will study texture, brushwork, and edges, as well as form and colour.

Morning sessions will consist of a live demonstration, in which Ruth will describe her process as she paints and answer questions. Afternoon sessions will give in-person students an opportunity to put into practice what they learned in the demo, and receive feedback.

This exclusive workshop is limited to six students, who will receive an exceptional amount of one-on-one instruction from Ruth.

Intended for intermediate/advanced students who have a strong understanding of painting fundamentals, which include draftsmanship, paint handling, and an understanding of form.

  • This workshop will take place at East Oaks Studio in Cary, NC. The exact address and directions will be provided after registration.

  • There is a wide array of accommodation options in the area. A list of options and resources will be provided after registration.

  • A materials list will also be provided.

Cancellation Policy: A full refund is available until February 24th. If you need to cancel after this point, you are responsible for the full cost of the workshop, unless the space is able to be filled. Thank you for your understanding.
