CLASSICAL OIL PAINTING - COLOR & SKIN TONES
THERE'S NO SUCH THING AS SKIN COLOR.
There is a skin tone - and it can be mixed the way the old masters mixed it. I'm Uri Shavit, a classically trained oil painter. I teach the part of painting most artists struggle with: color - with clear, practical lessons you can take straight to your easel.
