About the final project for: Realistic Pet Portraits with Oil Painting

Realistic Pet Portraits with Oil Painting

“I am very happy that you have chosen this course, as years of studying oil painting are consolidated here, in addition to all the insights I gained as a student. Hope you enjoyed the course!

These are the main steps of my Milly project:

Marcelo Rocha is a Brazilian painter specializing in oil and plein air paint. After working for many years as an IT executive, he decided to study painting at Plein Air Studio in Brazil and The Art Students League in the United States. Nowadays, he dedicates himself exclusively to art and is the author of hundreds of canvases made to order and scattered throughout private collections in America, Europe and Asia.
