Join us as we welcome Hector Hernandez to demonstrate techniques in oil portraiture and drawing on Thursday, February 6, at 7 p.m. in the Glenview Public Library’s Community Room West.
Hernandez is a Latin American artist whose virtuoso career spans decades of dedicated practice and global recognition. With extensive formal training in the United States and Europe, he studied at some of the world’s top art institutions, including the American Academy of Art and Atelier Neo Medici in the South of France. Hernandez uses the techniques of Rennaissance Dutch and Italian Old Masters to achieve a profoundly intricate level of detail and an ethereal, glowing softness reminiscent of Da Vinci’s sfumato.
In 2023 he opened The Atelier in Lake Forest, Illinois.
