Alla Prima Portraiture with Julia Sterland

​What’s Alla Prima?

​“Alla Prima” is Italian for “in one go” — a painting technique where the portrait is created in a single sitting, fresh and full of life. Instead of endless layers and retouches, the result captures the sitter’s personality in the moment.
