Join us for an online demonstration with Dorrie Rifkin. She'll take us through her process for creating a painting. Starting from a photograph, she turns to her sketchbook to figure out color, design and whether it's even worth painting. From there she makes a tight and detailed drawing that gives her the freedom to not worry about missing the image she's after.
