Course intent
In this inspiring one- day workshop you can try life drawing for the first time or discover new techniques and strengthen existing observational drawing skills, working exclusively from the unclothed figure.
A mixed ability group means you can learn from other people in the class whilst discovering your own style.
What will I learn?
You will learn: · quick drawing techniques to warm up · measuring the figure · addressing negative spaces · composition and mark making through use of extended drawing tools. · working on poses which vary in length depending on the theme
Learners will be inspired by the contemporary and historical context and will need to keep a sketchbook to record ideas, processes and progress, and the feedback they receive from the tutor.
There will be demonstrations, instruction, one-to-one tutorial guidance, group discussions and critiques.
Who is this course for? Is there anything I need to know before joining?
This course is suitable for all abilities.
What do I need to bring to the first class? Will there be any extra costs?
You need to bring: · A pad of white A1 and/or A2 cartridge paper (120 gsm or more) and · some lighter weight cheaper A1/ A2 paper for quick poses · a selection of pencils, a range of charcoal (willow), · masking tape or bulldog clips for boards and · an eraser/putty rubber.
Boards and easels are provided.
