Drawing (Adults)
Basics of Drawing - This class is an opportunity to learn about landscape drawing, observation and seeing the subject in both traditional and new ways. Different concepts will be introduced and explored each week, including the foundational skills of value, texture, perspective, and composition. There will be plenty of guidance for each student from the instructor. This class is for beginner to intermediate students. (5 weeks) No Class: 11/27
Expressive Drawing - Explore drawing as a tool for personal expression rather than observation. Through guided prompts, participants will use memory, sensation, movement, and imagination as starting points for creating expressive images. Working with charcoal and mixed media, students will experiment with mark-making, shape, value, and composition to develop drawings that communicate mood, energy, and experience. Open to all skill levels. Instructor: Kate Henderson (5 weeks)
Life Drawing - Join Tony Falcone for a life drawing class with a French Bourbonnais Soldier! The model will wear a uniform designed by Mr. Falcone for a bronze statue. Students will draw the human form from the live model, using charcoal on paper. The instructor will demonstrate his process in capturing a likeness through line, composition and value. Students will be guided on how to see and sketch from life while exploring their own style and artistic approach. The goal will be to complete a final sketch. All levels welcome, all supplies included. Instructor: Tony Falcone (1 day)
Oil Pastel Self-Portrait - In this workshop students will explore self-expression through texture and color with oil pastels. In creating self-portraits from photos, participants can experiment with mark-making and layering to push the bounds of depth and atmosphere to reflect their perception of self. Guidance through color, lighting and technique will be provided, as all skill levels are welcome! Please be prepared to work from a photo on your device or send us a photo to print ahead of class. Bring a bagged lunch. Instructor: Sagan Anderson (1 day).
