What you can expect during the session:
Working with the brilliant Alex Alford (https://www.instagram.com/alexdrawslife/), we have a unique chance to delve through his perspective and explore how light interacts with the figure. In this workshop we’ll focus on observing and translating subtle shifts in value, and on developing confidence in handling tonal range without losing depth or dimensionality.
We’ll also explore how colour choices can shape the mood and feel of a drawing — from cooler tones like blues and purples to warmer, analogous hues. Rather than aiming for photographic accuracy, our approach will be about creative interpretation: learning to see what the light is doing and making choices that serve the pictorial narrative we want our drawings to tell.
All levels are welcome, and materials will be provided (chalk pastels, soft charcoal, toned paper, and newsprint). You’re also welcome to bring your own.
