How to Paint a Color Study for a Portrait with Cornelia Hernes

A color study lesson from an upcoming Masterpiece painting demo with Cornelia Hernes. She walks you through the process of figuring out the color harmonies in a smaller color sketch before starting the larger painting. Cornelia a renowned classical realist painter and teacher from the Florence Academy of Art.
Cornelia’s full Masterpiece Demo allows you to see a professional artist create a masterpiece from scratch. Cornelia will explain her palette, give tips for mixing color, understanding paint characteristics, types of brushes, solvents, and staining a fresh canvas. Cornelia will give a brief lesson on the Sight-Size Method, show how to properly use this classical technique, and take the painting to a realistic rendering. The demo is on presale now and available Feb 29th - proko.com/hernes

    When you place so much paint out for mixing the various shades there appears to be an awful lot. Will this be used on other paintings and if saving your oil tints what do you do to extend its life period. If some have been mixed with walnut alkyd then it has a restricted.llife. I'm in a different league you can paint with confidence and achieve excellence, the waste thereafter is insignificant.

    Leila Jones many people report they like the buttery tactile feedback they get while painting. And if you paint solvent free, the smell of the oils is wonderful. Very different from the chemical smell of acrylics. It’s really a matter of preference, but there are many enjoyable aspects that only oils can provide. :) Cheers.

    @@magnavitae4736 I doubt she uses photos in her own work. If she is painting a portrait for a client, then there is not one portrait painter alive who does not work 90 percent from photos. That is what they have to do. They only get one or two sittings with clients. I'm sure most of them would prefer more live sittings. She does use photos when demonstrating her work on Patreon. The color in the painting does not look like the photo. If you want to paint strictly from life you cannot be a portrait painter. It is unfortunate people won't sit like in the old days. There may be a select few who are able to insist on more sittings; thinking perhaps Nelson Shenks was able to work with more sittings.

    Because a color study is not meant to replicate all the details of the finished piece, it's meant to allow you to study-that is to learn, from the colors you'll be using, and how they will be replicated in your piece. Also in practical terms, decide exactly what colors of paint you want to use, and how you need to mix them before attempting a full piece.
