About this opportunity
The space
The workshop begins with creating an original portrait reference using Midjourney or Gemini, then moves into composition, design and drawing before painting starts. Across the remaining days, Kara demonstrates how to build form and colour in acrylic, layer the portrait and make considered decisions from the generated reference. Participants receive guidance throughout while developing a painting in their own visual language.
Surroundings
The workshop is held at Kara Bullock Art School in Tustin, California. John Wayne Airport in Santa Ana is the nearest airport. Participants arrange their own travel and can choose from nearby hotels or short-term rentals.
