The class will cover light distribution in NMM, how to place reflections so metal reads clearly, and how to use color and texture to make metallic surfaces feel more believable and visually interesting.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe workshop will also explore how to combine brush and airbrush work effectively, using each tool where it is strongest rather than treating them as separate approaches. Students can expect a practical, technique-focused class centered on observation, light placement, surface character, and clean execution.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTopics include:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFace painting as a focal point\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eLight distribution in non-metallic metal\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eColor choices and texturing for painted metal\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCombining brush and airbrush techniques\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe workshop figure will be provided and is a lovely exclusive bust by Thorbjorn Barone.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eYou will also have the opportunity to get a preview tour of the Museum before it opens.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eInstructor Bio\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMichał “Lan” Pisarski is a Polish miniature painter and box artist.
