This is a three-stage demonstration of a complete portrait painting process of a professional busker I have known for over 20 years. He has an amazing face and always dresses in flamboyant colours, so he is a visual treat!
“My system is quite structured and methodical, which helps the painting process go smoothly, from the gridding to the finishing touches. I’ll be using oils, but I start with Brushmarkers, which are normally used by illustrators. This might be a totally new method for you, but I’m sure you’ll be inspired to try it yourself!”
You can also read the step-by-step tutorial on the blog or on page 42 of the Summer 2024 issue of Paint & Create.
