Open enrolment - 'pay as you go' option available to help cover cost of supplies. New and experienced artists welcome. Great for beginners and those who think they do not have an artistic side - you'd be amazed!
Course outline will cover:
seeing with you eyes half shut-- learning to draw requires learning to see. taking advantage of right brain strategies, we'll cover concepts of line and form and negative and
positive space. using pencils and charcoal, exercises will include blind and modified contour drawings, open and closed shape drawings, and negative shape
drawings. participants will draw a series of simple objects to develop their kills.
faking the landscape-- drawing a scene requires an ability to ignore as much as to notice. we'll cover how to simplify landscapes by breaking them down into a series of interlocking shapes. colour contrasts will be explored with oil pastel. exercises will include drawing an upside down landscape image and creating the illusion of depth in two dimensional space through the use of overlap relationships.
mapping the face-- everyone has essentially the same face...by learning to see and find the basic features, we can use subtle differences to express individual likeness. pencil, charcoal, and oil pastel will be used.
watercolour painting– watercolour is a natural progression from drawing as basic drawing skills allow participants to reserve places for the paint. by working from the general to the specific, participants will learn how to reduce a mass of details to a limited number of descriptive shapes. simple painting strategies will be demonstrated and incorporated into the exercises.
