The Arthouse Oasis News
Here’s a snapshot from one of our Zorn palette portrait sessions 🎨 — using only four colours (white, black, yellow ochre, and cadmium red), students explored how to create beautiful skin tones, contrast, and light from a single reference image.
These portraits, painted side-by-side, demonstrate how much personal interpretation and variation can emerge even when starting from the same subject.
This classic limited palette technique is perfect for building tonal confidence and understanding colour harmony.
Join us in Bishop’s Stortford and learn how to paint portraits step by step in a relaxed, supportive studio environment.
