A 4-week drawing course for anyone interested in exploring the medium of charcoal. Sundays, June 3 – 24. 9am-12pm.
In order to draw realistically, we have to teach ourselves to think and see abstractly. The first step is forgetting about the preconceived idea of “drawing a thing." Instead, by recording a series of specific shapes in shades of light and dark, a representation of form will begin to emerge. Charcoal is the perfect, simple tool, acting as a fluid extension of the artist’s hand, arm, body, and mind. It is simultaneously dense, soft, hard, delicate, fast, bold, messy, clean, and above all, forgiving. By exploring a variety of techniques for applying charcoal to paper, we will train our hands and minds to approach the idea of drawing by seeing differently.
This class will cover the following topics:
