Meets on Sundays: October 28, November 4, 11 & 18
This 4-week workshop will focus on using drawing to build skills while also creating surprising images that use close observation paired with the passage of time as their subject.
Week 1: Introduction to drawing from observation using a variety of exercises that sharpen the eye and develop tools for accuracy.
Week 2: Using composition as a creative tool, specifically the balance of negative and positive space.
Week 3: Today we will focus on light/shade/shadow using objects from the museum’s collection.
Week 4: We will end the workshop by revisiting a favorite subject and developing an image that goes beyond representation.
