Drawing
Throughout this 10-week course you will experience drawing from the clothed figure.
Using both black and white and then coloured media you will learn to assess composition, proportion, negative space, varied texture and the value of personal expression.
The tutor will assist you to work both accurately and selectively to develop your own figure drawing as an end in itself or with a view to further your figure and portrait work.
This course is suitable for both beginners and improvers. A flexible materials list will be provided ahead of the course starting.
Tutor's Materials List:Please bring your own choice of paper - either A1 or A2 . We will be doing some short and longer poses so please feel free to bring different quality papers.
For black and white - charcoal and putty eraser and a range of pencils with sharpener and eraser.
Your own choice of coloured dry media - oil or conte pastel.
Plus fixative as appropriate.
We will start with black and white so no need to bring coloured pastels in week 1.
