Just a reminder about this Friday's portrait workshop. I have a few spaces left if anyone's interested in joining us!
Next in my series of daylong workshops is one suitable for all levels: from beginners to the advanced artist. Whether you're looking for an introduction to the dynamic range and possibilties of charcoal portraits, or are ready to brush up and sharpen your seeing and drawing skills, this popular "famous faces" workshop is a perfect way to get into the studio and re-energize your creative process.
Portrait Drawing in Charcoal - A Common Sense Approach
We'll explore
fundamentals of the portrait drawing process, this time using classic
celebrity icons Jimmy Stewart, Audrey Hepburn & Grace Kelly as
models.
We'll cover the
portrait drawing process step by step, beginning with the quick
establishment of a foundation of accurate proportions and key anchor
points. We'll then proceed piece by piece, seeing and drawing the
nuanced qualities of tone and edge to build an interlocking mosaic of
shapes to create a vital likeness.When: Friday, Feb. 7th, 10:00 am - 4:00pm (with a 1/2 hr break for lunch)
