Make it Nelson - Drawing with Line & Colour

In this fun class students will 'draw' using line as a powerful drawing tool!

Traditional artistic aids such as composition, perspective, form, tone and colour will be readily utilised. Explained, simplified, then used in class, these skills will become the backbone of the students artistic journey.

Commencing with a brief introduction to some of the world's historically famous line artists; the class will briefly discuss 'why' these artists works enamour us today. Freeing preconcpetions around the use of line and drawing!

Liberated, students will allow their artist self free to 'sketch' a variety of subject matter from still life through to portraiture, producing fun and unique line sketches of their own. Sketches will happen over various time frames from 3 second to 30 minute observational drawings.

Students will gain an understanding of time as a drawing aid to achieve differing results

The class will finish with a quick show, share and thoughts experience.
