So many people feel they ‘can’t draw’, but I think it’s more that they don’t draw like they think they should, rather than revelling in the mark that they make. There are so many more ways to draw than a purely realistic rendering, but we will start there. This drawing workshop will work towards developing your realistic drawing skills, and then move beyond into a more personal and expressive style of mark-making with attention to the quality of your line. It is helpful, if you are already comfortable with a pencil, but more fun awaits if you are willing to hold your pencil in your other hand. We will work through a range of drawing skills using dry media such as graphite and charcoal working in a range of scales from sketchbook pages to large sheets. Making a mark to express yourself is only the beginning.
