Portrait Painting Step #1
Portrait artist, Sanden begins by establishing the size and placement of the figure’s head on a stretched canvas, and then he draws the elements of the model’s face
|
 |
Portrait Painting Step #2
Once he is confident
about his drawing, he masses in the warm shadows in the
hair, along the side of the face, and in the neck area, gradually giving life to his oil portrait. |
 |
Portrait Painting Step #3
He then paints the shadows in the lower third of the face. |
 |
Portrait Painting Step #4
Sanden lightens the value of the flesh color and
paints the middle third of the face; then he uses
an even lighter color to block in the forehead. |
 |
Portrait Painting Step #5
Before refining the painting of the face, the portrait painter blocks
in the background and blouse to have
references with which to
judge the relative value and
color temperature of the
flesh tones.

Although Rogers' techniques are not so easy to master, her demonstrations make it clear she can teach almost anyone to improve their skills in watercolor portrait painting. She emphasizes the need to practice, to start over when things fail, and to develop strong drawing skills. She connects with students by confessing that she shares the same need to constantly remind herself about the important steps that must be taken when painting portraits.
Sanden’s career as a portrait artist has spanned three decades.
He is widely regarded as one of the foremost teachers
of professional portrait painting methods, he is the founder of The
Portrait Institute, in New York City, and he has toured the
nation teaching his ideas and portrait techniques to thousands of
artists. He has been commissioned to paint more than 500
public officials, business leaders, and private individuals,
and he is represented by several major portrait brokers. In
1994, The American Society of Portrait Artists presented
Sanden with their first John Singer Sargent Medal for Lifetime
Achievement. “There is plenty of room
for intuition and creativity. Following a definite procedure
builds assurance and competence.” Sanden wrote
in Portraits From Life in 29 Steps.
