Portrait course at Hamburg: What is the process?
- Drawing portraits requires a few basic skills first, which I will teach you in this course.
- How can you correctly see the facial proportions and transfer them to the painting surface in the right proportions?
- What should be considered when it comes to the anatomy of the eye, nose and mouth?
- There are also tips and tricks on technology, material and image composition.
- You will sketch, draw and paint great portraits step by step using different styles and techniques.
- The next step is to get away from the template and work as freely as possible.
- The resemblance to certain people is irrelevant or irrelevant at all. Rather, the focus is on free interpretation, creating moods and giving the portrait a character and a story.
- It can also be wild and weird. We will definitely come out - and have lots of fun! - lots of vivid portraits.

What initially began as a passion and with attending various artistic seminars developed into a freelance work as a visual artist. My work focuses in particular on free and (figurative) abstract painting.
