Painting Portraits Camp

Portrait painting has deep roots in history and still has a strong presence in the art world today. In this camp, you’ll learn how to work with oil paints, mix skin tones, tackle proportion, and create the illusion of light and form. In addition, you’ll practice mastering 3-D volume, structure, and anatomy — all leading up to painting from real life!

The School of Art at Arizona State University offers art camps for students ages 13-18 throughout the summer. These four- and five-day camps—which are open to students with all levels of experience—reflect a wide variety of studio art practices and provide students with an art immersion experience. Each camp gives participants the opportunity to meet others with similar interests and to receive valuable one-on-one feedback from our specialized instructors. All materials are provided for in-person camps. We can’t wait to work with you!
