DESCRIPTION:Oil pastel workshop – Portrait of Jeanne Hebuterne in a larg
 e hat, 1918 (Amedeo Modigliani)Amedeo Clemente Modigliani is known for por
 traits and nudes in a modern style characterized by a surreal elongation o
 f faces, necks, and figures — works that were not received well during h
 is lifetime, but later became much sought after. In this painting Portrait
  of Jeanne Hébuterne in a Large Hat, we can see Modigliani's signatu
 re distortion and exaggeration, with a long, oval face and long nose. He u
 ses curving and twisting lines. He was strongly influenced by African art,
  which is reflected in the mask-like face.In this workshop, the instructor
  will provide guidance on using oil pastels and other tools to achieve the
  desired effect along with the historical context of the painting, the rel
 ationship between the artist and his muse, and the impact of Modigliani&#0
 39;s style on the Expressionist movement. We will not only learn the techn
 ical aspects of oil pastel painting but also gain a deeper understanding o
 f the art's significance and the artist's style.
