Introduction to mark making and gestures
After this class you will have a better understanding of how lines create visual language and how lines express images. The narrative that lines make will be better understood by the student so that when they are looking at drawings they can understand why an artist chooses to use one line over another to depict their objective of the drawing.
Instruction topics: A quick overview on the history of mark making and the history of line as an element of visual language. Visual materials include cave drawings from Blombos, Lascaux and Altamira followed by a demo of drawing different kinds of lines, shapes, marks, etc and having an interactive discussion about how the differences in line can be interpreted and perceived, demonstrating how gestural line drawing is a visual starting point for drawing the figure as a whole.
The class includes a mix of :30 gestural drawings, :60, 5 min, 10 min poses and a final 20 min pose.
