Clouds and Upcoming Workshops in November 2016

Cloud study in charcoal by Janice 2016

The following photographs are work produced from a two and a half hour drawing workshop with Seaview Art Group.  Many thanks to the fantastic learners that attended! It was a busy morning with everyone working hard and building on their drawing skills.

Firstly, we looked at drawing trees. We focused on tree structure and shape, then looked at adding tone (light to medium and medium to dark textural tones).  The next hour was spent very successfully on drawing clouds where the students used a range of pencils, graphite sticks and charcoal. The results are below:

All the students enjoyed the workshop and felt they had gained new skills.  Following the success of this workshop I have decided to do two more in November.  The details are as follows:

Drawing Skills
1 Day (3 hours), 12.30 - 3.30pm, Friday 18th November, All Saints' Church, Ryde, £25.
Learn to depict form, gain better control of contrast and master 1 & 2 point perspective.
Please feel free to bring along drawing you may need help with improving.

Reality to Abstraction (open medium - Oils, Acrylics, Gouache and Watercolour)

1 Day (5 hours), 10.00 - 3.00pm, Thursday 24th November, Bembridge Village Hall, £40.

Ideal for anyone wishing to free up their work and become less precious, try a different approach, begin to see in a different way.  Gain a better understanding of abstract art - get the creative mind racing. Taking inspiration from reality learn how to compose and create unique abstract art pieces.
