In this immersive oil portrait painting course, participants will have the opportunity to learn directly from award-winning figurative and portrait artist, Dylan Jones. Designed for artists at all levels, this course offers a fresh and expressive alternative to conventional portraiture training. Rather than focusing solely on anatomical precision and technical likeness, Dylan’s approach emphasises capturing the essence, vitality, and character of a subject.⁠
⁠
Dylan’s supportive teaching style creates an enjoyable and collaborative environment where experimentation is encouraged and creative growth is the goal. Participants will leave with a deeper understanding of how to bring personality, mood, and life into their portraits.⁠

When: Saturday, 14th of March, 10am to 2pm⁠
Ticket price: $125⁠
Location: Upstairs studio gallery, RQAS Petrie Terrace Gallery (unit 3/162 Petrie Terrace, Brisbane)⁠
