Course Notes

 

During the course of the week you will be taught a variety of drawing exercises, which will encourage you to develop your own personal style and way of working. Much of the initial work will be sketchbook based looking at plants, flowers, fruit and vegetables.

Though most materials are provided - students are asked to bring any relevant media such as images of interest or any past work.

Monday - Drawing and loosening up, linking the eye to the hand. Working with a limited colour palette.

Tuesday- Drawing with accuracy and speed, looking at form and shape, creating tones, sketching and painting.

Wednesday - Drawing and painting texture - understanding scale and balancing your paper.

Thursday & Friday - Expanding and stretching your knowledge and understanding through individual work. Working towards your final piece/pieces.
