If you are looking to gain the skills and knowledge needed to paint portraits with confidence then this is the workshop for you. Diarmuid has created a very informative two-day workshop that takes the fear out of painting. I learned so much in two days from colour mixing, observation, techniques and approach. Invaluable and fun. Highly recommended for beginners and experienced artists alike.
