ABOUT THIS TICKET
This ticket is for a one-off taster class to try out the experimental figure drawing workshop. For those wishing to continue, successive sessions can then be booked.
WORKSHOP DESCRIPTION
The workshop, which takes place as a series of classes, is called as such because of its exploratory nature. It serves as a space for development and discovery, where individuals engage in artistic exploration and growth.
This journey is an experimental introduction to figure drawing for complete beginners to intermediate level. You will discover how to relate to and draw the human body in an investigational way, rather than through classical methods. Through the course, you will learn about using materials that suit your individual style. Materials used in both dry and wet techniques can be soft pastels, charcoal, ink, a variety of pencils, and brushwork. History of art will be integrated into the course and directly influence the sessions, creating a basis for you to discover your unique artistic talent.
Basic general information about human anatomy is provided, though the course is not based on a classical method. We will use printed material and no live model will be present.
My teachings will be just the start of your own personal application and purpose. The classes are going to be in groups of maximum 5 people, to create an intimate work space and for me to dedicate enough time to each person.
Each session will end with a discussion, exchange of ideas, and feedback on the learning process.
