Who?
This class is aimed at beginners who don't know where to start to draw expressively, as well as more experienced artists who feel the need to explore different ways to draw. This class will help you add a little "something" to your drawings.
Why?
Line is everywhere, and mastering it is an essential drawing skill. There is SO MUCH information to be conveyed in a line; texture, movement, composition, space, mood, emotion, etc. . And as with most things in life, practice is key.
We will practice contour drawing, to gain confidence in our line work, and then we'll add a bit of a twist for a new outlook on how much information can be conveyed in a line.
We will also explore how to add value to contour drawings using only line to create marks.
Exploring new ways to draw and express yourself is yet another step in curating your unique style. Exploring line and marks will lead to finding your voice, your signature, and your own way to express yourself while giving your drawings more contrast and strength.
These exercices will not only improve general drawing skills, but they certainly will help you translate what your see in the expressive way that is your own.
